Join an established engineering business as a Mechanical Design Engineer, where you'll play a vital role in the development of innovative machinery and precision-engineered systems. This is a fantastic opportunity for a mechanically-minded designer looking to build their career in a collaborative and forward-thinking environment.

You'll support the design and development of complex machinery from concept through to manufacture, while gaining valuable experience in a variety of engineering disciplines, including risk assessments, compliance, and technical documentation.

• Support all aspects of machine design, including both conceptual and detailed engineering.
• Ensure designs meet Machinery Directive and legislative standards.
• Assist with Risk Assessments and FMEA as part of project safety and reliability.
• Participate in and organise multi-disciplinary design reviews.
• Help produce technical documentation including specifications, manuals, and operation/maintenance guides.

• Provide on-site or remote technical service support, where required.

• A degree or HNC/HND in Mechanical Engineering or a similar discipline.
• Familiarity with 3D CAD software (e.g., Inventor or similar).
• Enthusiasm for mechanical design and precision engineering.
• A strong eye for detail and eagerness to learn in a fast-paced, hands-on environment.
• Knowledge of engineering standards, risk assessment practices, or Machinery Directive (a plus, not essential).

• Be part of a supportive team with excellent staff retention and career development opportunities.
• Enjoy a 4-day working week (Mon-Thu, 4x9.5 hours).
• Flexible start times to suit your work-life balance.
