Job Description:

Are you a skilled CNC Operator looking to level up your career?

We're on the hunt for someone ready to step into a role where your technical ability will shape the future of high-precision engineering. You’ll operate CNC lathes/milling machines, ensure perfect first-off parts, and work closely with quality and programming teams to keep production smooth, accurate, and ahead of the curve. This is your chance to expand your skills, grow with a supportive team, and help push the boundaries of what’s possible in precision manufacturing.

What you’ll be doing:

• Operating CNC machines (lathe or milling) with minimal supervision
• Perform test runs and first-off inspections using micrometers, verniers, and gauges
• Fine-tune offsets, feeds, and speeds to meet spec
• Troubleshoot issues like tool wear, chatter, or alignment
• Collaborate with programmers and QC to nail accuracy
• Follow safety and quality standards like it’s second nature

You’ll need:

• 2+ years’ experience as a CNC Operator (lathe, milling, or both) for Doosan/Tormach machines
• Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings and tolerances
• Confident setting tool offsets and using manual inspection tools
• Basic G-code know-how and CNC control panel experience (FANUC, etc.)
• A proactive mindset and a passion to grow into setup and programming

Even better if you have:

• Experience setting CNC machines under supervision
• Exposure to lean manufacturing, 5S, or small-batch/high-precision work
• Multi-axis or live tooling machine experience

At Dexory, we live by four operating principles:

Performance. Impact. Commitment. One Team.

From day one, you'll be part of a company that values growth, ambition, and teamwork. You won’t just be doing a job; you’ll be helping redefine logistics through next-generation robotics.

What’s in it for you?

• Share options
• Life insurance & income protection
• Enhanced pension: 4% employee (with salary exchange option), 5% employer
• 25 days holiday
• Team socials & fun offsites
• Mental health and wellbeing support
