Shrewsbury Shropshire, United Kingdom Major Talent Full time

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 - Tailgate and Closure Systems 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 dynamic loading conditions 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' Closures systems 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.

Educated to degree level (preferably Masters) in a relevant engineering discipline or equivalent NVQ Level 7 qualification.
Proven project management and supplier experience.
Track record of successfully managing multiple large-scale projects.
33 days holiday (25 + BH)
Holiday purchase scheme
Life assurance scheme
Pension scheme
Healthcare cash plan
40 hrs per week - early finish on a Friday
