CNC Miller / Programmer
We are representing a precision engineering business involved in project-based, special-purpose build environments. Due to increased demand across ongoing technical programmes, a position is now available for an experienced CNC Miller / Programmer to join a multi-disciplinary manufacturing team producing tight-tolerance components for complex mechanical assemblies.
The Role
You run multi-axis CNC millers producing low-volume, high-specification components. This is not repetitive production work - each batch is different and requires methodical setup, accurate inspection, and a strong understanding of machining principles.
Key Responsibilities
Programming, setting and operating CNC millers (multi-axis).
Producing precision-turned components to tight engineering tolerances.
Using micrometres, bore gauges and callipers for in-process inspection.
Adjusting tooling, offsets and machining parameters to maintain accuracy.
Interpreting technical drawings, including GD&T.
Working closely with engineering and quality across bespoke build projects.
Maintaining a clean, safe and organised work area.
Shift Pattern & Pay
Double Day Shift: 6:00–14:00 / 14:00–22:00 (weekly rotation)
Rate: £18.00 per hour + shift allowance
Overtime and additional benefits available.
Ideal Background
Experience programming and setting multi-axis CNC millers.
Confident using Fanuc controls.
Knowledge of Fusion360 would be ideal but not essential.
Able to read complex engineering drawings and follow controlled processes.
Familiar with one-off or low-volume precision machining environments.
Manual machining knowledge beneficial.
