Category:
Graduate Mechanical Design Engineer , preferably with some commercial experience to join a successful bespoke machinery manufacturer, established over 40 years. This is a fantastic opportunity for an enthusiastic graduate to learn the trade. In this position as a draughts person, the Graduate Engineer will have the opportunity to learn first-hand, cradle-to-grave machining jobs and projects while working closely with engineers of all disciplines. Typical Duties could include: Machining Projects Oversight

Manage machining jobs from quotation to completion. Conduct feasibility assessments and Design for Manufacturing (DFM) evaluations. Perform engineering calculations (material density, motor requirements, sealing solutions).

Technical Drawing & CAD Modelling

Create and modify drawings using AutoCAD/Inventor with correct tolerances. Reverse engineer parts from customer samples. Provide 3D CAM models to the machine shop.

Customer & Supplier Coordination

Liaise with customers to define technical requirements. Source engineering data for components (seals, bearings, materials, etc.). Order and source materials for projects.

Issue drawings/jobs to the machine shop. Perform measurement checks on machined parts. Organize deliveries using third-party couriers.

Laser/Profiling Department Support

Administrative & Miscellaneous Duties

Log orders in databases and maintain work schedules. Assist front office/sales with small projects. Print delivery notes for drivers. Support general drawing-related tasks across departments.

This is a stepping stone into a more technical Mechanical Design Engineer position within the company. Based in the heart of Norfolk, it is likely the Graduate Engineer would need to relocate. This is a beautiful part of the country with affordable rents and only 1.40 hours by train from London Kings Cross.
