* Maintaining traceability of machined components throughout the process
* Reporting any health and safety concerns or near misses to your line manager
* Returning completed programmes and setting sheets to the CAD department

* The ability to read and interpret engineering drawings
* Familiarity with common CNC controls such as Fanuc, Mazak, or similar
* Competence in the use of measuring tools and gauges

* A strong sense of responsibility for safety and accuracy


What’s in It for You?
