We have a passion and a strong track record of developing our people within their roles, and through exposure to the different markets and functions across our business.

The role:

As a Design Engineer at HL Display UK in Harlow, you will be responsible for creating engineering manufacturing drawings for both in-house and external production, working within our small but busy team, and reporting to the UK Design Director.

You’ll need an eye for detail, a good working knowledge of relevant manufacturing processes, excellent communication skills, and effective time management ability.

Starting with a customer brief, you’ll use 3D CAD to develop solutions that meet customer needs, budget, and manufacturing possibilities. You’’ work closely with the Account Managers, Design and Prototyping teams, Project Managers and Factory departments to win business and deliver products on time and on budget.

You’ll be fully supported by our highly experienced teams, and encouraged to learn and grow rapidly, taking ownership and seeing your work come to life in store. We offer an exceptional opportunity to gain valuable hands-on experience in a wide range of materials and manufacturing processes.

What will you be responsible for?

  • Take approved visuals/concepts/written briefs and produce prototype and manufacturing drawings. Developing functional, aesthetically relevant, and manufacturable displays within budget and time constraints.
  • Collaborate with the conceptual designers to faithfully realise the chosen design, and with Estimators to achieve budgetary constraints.
  • Work closely with Prototype team to evaluate redesign prototypes, ensuring that the delivered production units perform satisfactorily.
  • Liaise with Project Managers and Factory departments as needed to verify construction, specifications and quality.
  • Ensure all project documentation adheres to company defined processes - detailed and accurate 2D Part and Assembly Drawings, Bills of Materials, QC guidelines, Technical Specification Sheets. Attend and contribute to all project milestone meetings for your designs.
  • Communicate project status regularly and effectively with Line Manager.

Does this sound like the right challenge for you?

So, what’s in it for you?

  • Work in a business with global scale – where people are empowered to make decisions locally.
  • Grow with a company which has big ambitions – both for the business and our employees.
  • Help us improve the shopping experience and drive sustainability in retail.

Rewards:

  • Competitive salary and benefits package
  • 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays (plus optional 5 days unpaid annual leave).
  • Casual business dress policy
  • Employee Assistance Programme

So, who are you?

We employ people from all walks of life and with a wide range of work experiences. To succeed in this role we are looking for the following skills and experience:

  • Relevant Engineering Design degree is desirable
  • 2-5 years’ experience in a closely related field
