Mechanical Engineer | Workshop-Based Role - Croydon
Hands-on. Analytical. Customer-facing. Problem solver. If that sounds like you, this engineering team wants you in their workshop.
They’re looking for a Mechanical Engineer who loves real engineering — fault investigations, overhaul prep, BoM checks, tooling design, method statements, technical reports, and everything in between. This is a role where your engineering judgement genuinely matters and your work directly improves product reliability, customer satisfaction, and business performance.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Leading fault and warranty investigations — from diagnosis through to customer communication and final reporting.
- Producing clear, accurate technical documentation: method statements, overhaul instructions, test procedures, FAIs, concessions, and engineering change requests.
- Supporting overhaul projects with hands-on engineering input and technical problem solving.
- Reviewing BoMs, drawings, and technical documents to ensure accuracy and compliance.
- Working closely with Sales, Projects, Production, Purchasing, Operations, Quality, and the Shop Floor.
- Representing the business in customer technical meetings and on-site support.
- Designing tooling, analysing materials, and contributing to product improvements and cost-saving initiatives.

Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What You Bring
- HNC/HND (or equivalent) in a mechanical engineering discipline.
- 6+ years’ experience across mechanical engineering, testing, investigations, and technical process writing.
- Strong analytical skills and the ability to work from first principles.
- A genuinely hands-on, flexible, proactive approach.
- Excellent communication skills with internal teams and external customers.
- Commercial awareness — understanding how engineering decisions impact contracts and future business.
- Knowledge of ISO 9001:2015, BS 8888, and overhaul production processes.
- Enthusiasm for mechanical engineering and a drive to continuously learn.
- Experience with driveline products (gearboxes, couplings, cardan shafts, rail couplers, marine drives) is a bonus, not a requirement.
