The role of the Project Engineer will focus on managing, developing and performing process equipment validations for our bespoke machines used to manufacture and test our medical devices. You will provide technical project management input, and become an engineering point of contact working in wider project teams. You will be able to own project tasks and deliverables, responsible and committed to ensure that agreed project deliverables meet the requirements. You will manage complex capital projects with suppliers and subcontractors (including occasional site visits), collaborating with different stakeholders across the business in an inclusive and dynamic work environment.
This role will offer plenty of opportunity to grow and build your engineering career whilst helping to shape the future of healthcare.
The ideal candidate will bring a degree level education in an Engineering discipline, along with proven experience in Project Engineering. You will have a thirst for problem solving, an interest in automated machinery, and an inquisitive mind to explore technical opportunities. As we operate in a highly-regulated industry, you must be able to demonstrate the ability to follow procedures and create accurate documents and records of your work. In addition, we would look for you to share your experience with other team members, acting as a role model/mentor to those you work alongside.
This is a fantastic opportunity to become a valued member of a highly skilled Engineering team working with brand new state-of-the-art automation in a fast growing area of our business. Engineering skill is key to us, with other team members working in areas including projects, process, production, systems, software, R&D and machine vision.

Here at Witney, we also like to help our employees live life to the fullest, and therefore we offer a range of optional initiatives for you to get involved in, including onsite allotments, couch to 5k campaigns, bee keeping, yoga and more!
