CNC Operator/ Programmer/ Turner
Our modern CNC workshop is equipped with late-model Yamazaki Mazak and DMG Mori turning and milling centres.
The Role
We are seeking an experienced and self-motivated CNC Programmer, Setter, and Operator to take ownership of precision turning projects. Working largely on your own initiative within our small-batch production workflow, you will turn rough castings into high-precision finished components to tight geometric and dimensional tolerances.
Key Responsibilities:
*
Programming, setting, and operating CNC turning machines.
*
Producing high-precision parts from engineering drawings in small batch runs and bespoke short production.
*
Performing full dimensional self-inspection using standard mechanical metrology and measuring equipment.
*
Managing tool selection, offsets, feeds, speeds, and machine setup efficiently to optimize cycle times.
Requirements:
*
Proven background setting and programming CNC lathes/turning centres to tight tolerances.
*
Experience with Mazatrol controls is a distinct advantage, but full training will be provided for programmers experienced in other controls (e.g., Fanuc, Siemens, Heidenhain).
*
Ability to read, interpret, and work confidently from technical engineering drawings.
*
Proficient with standard precision measuring equipment (micrometers, bore gauges, height gauges, etc.).
*
Experience with small-batch work, jobbing shop environments, or heavy industrial materials (bronzes/brasses) is a plus.
What We Offer:
*
Competitive salary based on experience + regular paid overtime opportunities.
*
23 days paid annual leave + public bank holidays.
*
Free secure on-site parking.
*
Excellent public transport links (North Acton & Harlesden Stations)
