We’re working with a respected, family-run engineering business that supplies high-quality components to the automotive industry, with a particular focus on vintage parts and restoration work. With over 1,800 product lines and 50,000 parts in stock, they maintain a strong in-house capability across both traditional and modern machining.
The Role
They’re looking for a skilled CNC Turner to join their close-knit team. You’ll be working on a HAAS lathe with Fanuc-based controls, handling a variety of one-offs and low-batch work.
Some programming knowledge is required — either on-machine or offline (CAMWorks or SolidWorks would be beneficial, but not essential if you're good with Fanuc controls and hands-on programming).
Key Responsibilities
* Setting and operating HAAS CNC lathes (Fanuc controls)
* Producing small batch, high-precision parts to technical drawings
* Programming new parts (on or offline) and adjusting existing programs as needed
* First-off and in-process inspection using standard gauges and micrometres
* Keeping your area clean and organised with light machine maintenance
Ideal Background
* Strong experience as a CNC Turner (setting/operating/programming)
* Confident with Fanuc controls (HAAS experience ideal)
* Comfortable working solo and managing your own workload
* Previous exposure to low-volume, high-quality engineering
* Any experience with CAM software (CAMWorks, SolidWorks, etc.) is a plus
