Job description

Do you enjoy working on mechanical designs that make it off the screen and into production?

Are you looking for a role where you can stay hands-on while continuing to build your design expertise?

Interested in joining an engineering team that values practical problem-solving and collaboration?

We are working with an established UK engineering business that is continuing to invest in its in-house product development capability. As part of this growth, they’re looking to add a Mechanical Engineer with a product design focus to their engineering team.

This is a practical, office-based role suited to engineers who enjoy being closely involved in design activity and seeing concepts progress into physical products.

The Role

You’ll be part of a collaborative engineering function, contributing to the design and refinement of mechanical products used in real-world applications.

Typical responsibilities will include:

• Creating and modifying mechanical designs using 3D CAD
• Supporting prototype builds and design verification activities
• Reviewing performance data and implementing design improvements
• Producing technical documentation to support manufacturing
• Working alongside other engineers to deliver project objectives

The role offers exposure to a variety of design tasks rather than a narrow project remit.

This position would suit someone with experience in mechanical or product design who enjoys hands-on engineering and structured development environments.

Relevant experience may include:

• Mechanical or product design within an engineering setting
• Use of 3D CAD software (Inventor or similar)
• Understanding of engineering drawings and assemblies
• Ability to manage multiple design tasks concurrently

Formal qualifications are helpful, though practical design experience is equally valued.

• Performance-related bonus
• Enhanced annual leave
• Pension and insurance benefits
• Support for professional development and training
• Additional employee benefits

Inclusion matters

We and our client are committed to building an inclusive team that values different backgrounds and experiences. If this role sounds interesting but you do not meet every single requirement, we would still encourage you to apply. Potential and attitude matter just as much as experience.
