We are recruiting a skilled CNC Engineer for an aerospace manufacturing business in Rochford, Essex. This is an opportunity to develop your skills into grinding as part of your daily role.

The role is predominantly in second operations — not lathes, but the more manual operations on site including grinding, capstan, drills and associated machinery.

Four-day week, Monday to Thursday. Immediate start available for the right person.

* Carrying out first-off and job run inspection of machined parts

* Reading and measuring using micrometer to tight tolerances

* Learning and developing grinding skills as part of the role

* Maintaining machine efficiency and contributing to KPIs

* Reducing scrap and rework and reporting efficiencies to the Production Manager

* Maintaining a clean and safe working environment at all times

What We Are Looking For

* Solid CNC engineering background — setting and running CNC machines, lathes and manual machines

* Aerospace engineering knowledge — ideally from an aerospace manufacturing environment

* Confident with micrometer reading and working to tight tolerances — 0.5 micron or similar

* Experience with materials including aluminium, stainless steels and Inconel

* Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings and specifications

* Willing and motivated to learn centreless and manual grinding

* Any existing grinding experience is desirable but not essential

What Is On Offer

* Up to £35,000

* Genuine four-day week — Monday to Thursday

* Full training and development in grinding

* Pension, health cash plan, life assurance, EAP and shopping discounts
