The Role

You will be responsible for interpreting customer specifications and preparing accurate, machine‑ready files to support daily production. Working closely with operations and production teams, you will help ensure work flows efficiently from order through to manufacture.

• Produce machine‑ready files for plasma, laser, oxy‑fuel or CNC cutting equipment
• Support day to day production requirements and job scheduling
• Assist with order processing and job preparation to ensure accuracy and on time delivery
• Maintain high standards of accuracy and attention to detail in a high volume environment
• Work collaboratively with production and operational teams

• Experience in a CAD/CAM, nesting, or production programming role
• Familiarity with profile cutting or CNC manufacturing environments
• Experience with laser, plasma, oxy‑fuel, or similar cutting processes
• Basic CAD understanding; experience with nesting software is advantageous
• Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple tasks
• Practical, production‑focused mindset

Candidates from steel, fabrication, or general manufacturing backgrounds are encouraged to apply. Training may be available for the right individual.

• Permanent role with a stable, growing manufacturing business
• Salary up to £34k
• Support and development within a well invested operation
