Mechanical Design Engineer – Bulk Material Handling (Bespoke Systems)
Nelson (North West) – Easily accessible
£45,000–£48,000 | Growing Engineering Group
We’re supporting a fast-growing engineering group that has recently expanded through acquisition. As part of this growth, they’re looking to appoint a Mechanical Design Engineer to work on a range of bespoke bulk-handling and process-equipment projects for major food manufacturers.
All design engineers are based in the same office, creating a supportive environment where you can easily share ideas, get input, and collaborate with experienced colleagues while working on your own projects.
Project work typically involves:
*
Dry and wet ingredient handling systems
*
Pneumatic conveying solutions
*
Process-equipment integration
*
Automated material handling and robotics
*
Upgrades, refurbishments and service-led engineering tasks
What they’re looking for:
*
A strong background in mechanical design, ideally with experience in material or liquid handling, process equipment, or chemical separation
*
Solid 3D CAD capability, ideally using Autodesk Inventor
*
Ability to deliver bespoke engineered solutions from concept through to manufacture
*
Someone confident working in a project-led environment and collaborating closely with engineering and production teams
*
While experienced designers are preferred, capable mid-level engineers with relevant project exposure are also encouraged to apply
This role is primarily on-site in Nelson, benefiting from excellent motorway access. Some flexibility may be possible where appropriate.
If you enjoy varied, bespoke engineering work and want to join a business in an exciting growth phase, this opportunity is well worth exploring
