* Manage product Bills of Materials (BOM) within the company's ERP system and liaise with purchasing.
* Work closely with the Engineering Manager to ensure designs meet deadlines, legislative guidelines, and environmental regulations.
* Provide hands-on support during the introduction of new and existing products in manufacturing.
To be successful, you will need:
* A degree in an engineering discipline or an HNC/HND in Mechanical Engineering.
