The Opportunity

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Mechanical Engineer to join our Operations Group in Witney. As a result of strong business growth and industry-leading product development in the biosensor business, we have opportunities for multi-skilled Support Engineers to support manufacturing operations across our business.

As a Support Engineer, you will provide technical expertise to fault find, maintain and continually improve bespoke automated equipment and processes. You will work in a clean room or controlled environment and provide assistance to the Projects Team in implementing changes to equipment.

Our current vacancies support our 4 on 4 off Days and Nights rotating pattern, or 4 on 4 off Nights.

About You

To be successful, you will need experience of Engineering within a manufacturing environment, specifically experience and skills in set-up of precision assemblies, the use of machine tools, fault finding and problem solving. You will need to have completed a recognised Engineering apprenticeship or have a higher education qualification (such as a ONC, HNC, HND or degree) in a related subject.

Continuous Improvement is an important part of our site's culture, so you will also have the opportunity to propose and contribute to initiatives and projects that improve our operations. You will also be required to demonstrate the ability to effectively communicate with your peers and other departments and to maintain a high standard of record keeping as required by our stringent quality systems.

Experience with any of the following would be an advantage, but is not essential as, due to the bespoke nature of our equipment, in-house training will be given:

  • Laser cutting & marking
  • Micro fluid deposition
  • Vision systems
  • Working in a regulated industry (e.g. pharma, medical device)
