* Review and improve existing work instructions to ensure clarity, consistency, and usability on the shop floor
* Develop standardised assembly and test routings aligned to best manufacturing practice
* Ensure instructions reflect actual build processes, tooling, fixtures, and quality checkpoints
* Work with the ERP implementation team to validate data structures, naming conventions, and configuration logic
* Support data cleansing, UAT testing, and post‑migration validation
* Act as a subject‑matter expert for manufacturing data within the ERP project
* Work closely with Engineering, Production, Quality, Supply Chain, and ERP consultants
* Ensure all BOMs and instructions align with quality, regulatory, and traceability requirements
* Identify opportunities to improve standardisation, efficiency, and repeatability in manufacturing processes
* Support the establishment of best practice for ongoing BOM ownership post‑ERP go‑live
Skills, Knowledge & Experience
* Proven experience in a Manufacturing Engineer, Production Engineer, or BOM Engineer role
* Strong hands‑on experience creating and maintaining complex multi‑level BOMs
* Experience preparing manufacturing data for ERP/MRP systems (Acumatica, SAP, Oracle, etc.)
* Strong understanding of assembly processes, routings, and shop‑floor operations
* Ability to interpret engineering drawings, specifications, and technical documentation
In return for the above you will be offered a highly competitive salary, excellent work environment and the opportunity to make a significant impact and success of this exciting project.
