Are you an experienced Design Engineer looking for a role where you'll have real ownership of projects rather than sitting behind a CAD screen all day? Join a specialist engineering company supplying bespoke machinery into the pharmaceutical industry, where you'll become a key member of a close-knit team and play a hands-on role across design, project engineering, and project management.
