Scheme overview

Renishaw offers exciting opportunities for graduates within our Manufacturing Services Division. The Operational graduate development programme aims to develop talented graduates.

Production Supervision – managing a team of production staff to meet build plan and customer order requirements. Graduates will undertake day-to-day supervisory duties of staff to achieve departmental quality, delivery, and cost targets whilst working in close liaison with local material control, engineering, and management functions.

What you will gain:

Management experience
