Are you looking for a role within a leading automotive manufacturer with exciting growth plans over the next 2 years.

Major Recruitment, in partnership with Polytec Group, are looking to recruit a Lead Engineer
  • Exterior Trim on a permanent basis to join the team on a hybrid basis with a minimum 2 days on site.

Based on our customers requirements you will be responsible for approving the initial concept layout to ensure the assembly meets the stiffness and durability conditions - ie solar loading, thermal expansion and high speed aerodynamic forces set out in the test plan.

While developing the concept layout it will be necessary to work with the manufacturing team to understand the optimum assembly process that can be achieved within the current manufacturing constraints and the production tooling engineers to ensure the single parts can be formed while meeting tough internal cost and weight targets.

This will be a leadership role but based on resources requirements it will be necessary to own your own project work ensuring a controlled production release to meet the project requirements, whilst ensuring your team also plan and meet the production release dates.

Align the team resource to deliver future customer work and highlight areas where resource needs to be increased or reduced based on project requirements.

Ensure the development of 'World Class' Exterior Trim based on benchmark data, latest design innovation and CAE techniques.

Work with the project team members to deliver a cross functional development process where the production release has been reviewed and approved cross functionally before the release date - including 2D drawings and tolerances where required.

Use the Test and Validation plan as verification of the engineering design and not as a development phase.
