Applications Engineer — CNC Grinding Machines
Salary: Circa £40,000 + Overtime + Company Car + Expenses
Location: Midlands-based (UK & European Travel Essential)
I’m looking for an ambitious engineer to join a leading name in precision engineering, working specifically with CNC Grinding Machines — some of the most advanced and respected systems in the industry.
You don’t need previous applications experience on CNC grinding machines for this role — though it’s certainly welcome — what really matters is a strong foundation in precision engineering, a good understanding of CNC machining, and the drive to develop your skills beyond the shop floor.
This position would suit someone who’s hands-on in a machine shop today, working as a Setter, Programmer, or Operator, and is now ready to step into a customer-facing role where your technical knowledge will be put to use across the UK and Europe.
What I’m Looking For:
- A solid engineering background, ideally working with CNC machinery.
- Previous grinding machine experience is desirable — but not essential.
- A customer-focused approach and a genuine interest in solving technical challenges.
Willingness and flexibility to travel across the UK and Europe (this will be a key part of the role).
What’s On Offer:
- A salary in the region of £40,000 + paid overtime.
- Fully expensed company car and travel costs covered.
- The opportunity to develop into an Applications Engineer — full training provided.
Work with a respected and forward-thinking engineering solutions provider.
If you’re an engineer who’s ready to for a career change or to step away from the machine shop, then please call Lee Geldart on 07526277602
