Manufacturing Engineer – Process & Technology
Broad, hands-on engineering role | Process Improvement | Manufacturing Technology
We're recruiting a Manufacturing Engineer for an established international manufacturing business.
This opportunity suits a versatile Mechanical, Industrial or Manufacturing Engineer who enjoys solving practical problems, improving production processes, and working with technology.
Rather than specialising in one area, you'll work across a broad range of manufacturing engineering activities, from factory-floor problem-solving through to industrialisation, equipment improvement and digital manufacturing projects.
You'll play an important role in driving improvements across the manufacturing operation.
The Opportunity
Your responsibilities will include:
Improving manufacturing processes, production efficiency and equipment performance.
Identifying practical solutions to production challenges to reduce downtime, waste, and manufacturing costs.
Supporting industrialisation, new product introductions and manufacturing process development.
Working across a range of manufacturing processes and production equipment, with exposure to technologies such as injection moulding and automation.
Analysing manufacturing data, cycle times and performance to identify improvement opportunities.
Contributing to automation, equipment upgrades and continuous improvement projects.
Exploring opportunities to improve manufacturing performance using digital tools, data analytics and emerging technologies.
Working closely with Production, Maintenance, Quality and Engineering teams.
About You
We're looking for someone with broad engineering capabilities, a practical mindset and the curiosity to tackle different technical challenges.
Ideally, you'll have:
A degree in Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Engineering or a related discipline.
Experience in manufacturing, production or process engineering.
A sound understanding of manufacturing equipment and production processes.
Demonstrated problem-solving and continuous improvement experience.
Interest in manufacturing technology, automation, and data-driven improvement.
The ability to work confidently across both engineering projects and factory-floor operations.
Strong communication skills, initiative and a willingness to take ownership.
Experience with industrialisation, Lean Manufacturing or digital tools such as BI, SQL or Python would be advantageous, but you don't need to be a specialist in every area.
If you're a hands-on engineer who enjoys variety, technology and finding better ways of doing things, we'd welcome a conversation.
