Purpose of the Role: To programme, set and operate CNC turning machines to produce high-quality precision components in line with engineering specifications, ensuring production targets, quality standards, and health & safety guidelines are consistently met. Act as a guide and mentor for less experienced members of the manufacturing team. Key Responsibilities: Set up CNC turning machines, including tooling, work holding, and programme loading. Interpret engineering drawings and specifications to determine optimum machine settings and programme. Perform first-off and in-process inspections using appropriate measuring equipment. Adjust machine settings (e.g., offsets) as necessary to maintain part conformity. Ensure the machines run efficiently with minimal downtime. Identify and report any production issues or non-conformities. Maintain a clean and organised work area in accordance with 5S and health and safety standards. Collaborate with colleagues in engineering, quality, and production to resolve technical challenges. Accurately complete job cards, inspection records, and other production documentation. Skills & Experience Required: Significant experience as a CNC Setter in a turning environment (sliding head and/or fixed head). Strong understanding of CNC programming and editing. Strong understanding of Fanuc (or similar) CNC control systems. Ability to read and interpret detailed technical drawings. Skilled in the use of manual and digital measuring instruments (micrometers, verniers, gauges). Experience of CMM's a plus Great mechanical aptitude and problem-solving ability. High attention to detail and commitment to quality. Excellent team player. Desirable: Experience with Star or Citizen sliding head machines. Familiarity with Lean Manufacturing or Continuous Improvement practices.
