Description
We are looking for a proactive and detail-driven Process Engineer to lead the development, optimisation, and standardisation of our metal sawing and associated manufacturing processes. In this role, you will play a key part in ensuring our operations are safe, efficient, and consistently deliver high-quality results.

Key Responsibilities
- Develop, define, and optimise metal sawing and machining processes, including cutting parameters, tooling selection, and material performance
- Standardise processes by creating and maintaining clear work instructions and best practices to ensure consistent, compliant output
- Drive continuous improvement initiatives to reduce scrap, rework, cycle time, and consumable costs using data-led analysis
- Ensure full compliance with health, safety, and environmental standards, supporting risk assessments and safe systems of work
- Provide technical support for equipment and tooling selection, trials, commissioning, and ongoing reliability improvements
- Collaborate with production, maintenance, quality, and supply chain teams to align processes with operational needs
- Monitor performance metrics, analyse trends, and deliver clear reports with actionable recommendations
- Support wider business needs by undertaking additional responsibilities as required
