Job description

We are looking for a CMM Inspector with the potential to join our growing weekend shift; we also have an opening on days. Reporting to the Inspection Manager, you will inspect components to drawing specifications and, where required, complete inspection and first article reports. You will require an understanding of engineering drawings and geometric tolerances in order to carry out manual inspection, as well as using Mitutoyo / Zeiss CMMs, Contour Trace, Surftest, and first principle techniques, ensuring you adhere to the company’s quality standards.

Your responsibilities will include verifying documentation, ensuring drawings, parts, and documentation are all in order at both the commencement of your operation and upon completion of your operation.

The role will involve liaising with engineering and manufacturing personnel regarding drawing interpretation and results.

About You

Ideally, you will have had inspection experience in engineering and preferably will have undertaken an engineering apprenticeship. Knowledge of motorsport, aerospace, or gear manufacturing is preferential. CMM experience is essential; however, previous use of Mitutoyo CNC CMM would be advantageous. The successful candidate may have experience of working in an environment of first offs, batch, and final inspections.

The ability to converse with engineering staff on drawing interpretation and results is vital, along with being able to appreciate customers’ high requirements and short lead times. To be able to produce well-written and concise records and work on your own initiative without supervision is a critical skill the successful candidate will have.
