CNC Mill-Turn Specialist
We are seeking an experienced CNC Mill-Turn Specialist to join a highly technical, fast-paced manufacturing environment. The successful candidate will be responsible for programming, setting up, and operating multi-axis mill-turn equipment while producing complex, high-precision components. This role requires strong CAM experience, excellent problem-solving abilities, and confidence working with challenging materials and tight tolerances.

Main Responsibilities

• Program, set up, and operate multi-axis mill-turn machining centres to manufacture precision components.
  
• Develop efficient and reliable CAM programs (Esprit or equivalent) for diverse and complex part families.
  
• Optimise machining processes for quality, repeatability, cost, and throughput.
  
• Troubleshoot machining issues, refine toolpaths, adjust offsets, and reduce cycle times.
  
• Collaborate with engineering, quality, and operations teams to meet demanding production schedules.
  
• Maintain a safe, organised, and compliant work environment.
  
• Contribute to tooling strategies, process improvements, and continuous improvement initiatives.

• Minimum 5 years’ experience in mill-turn machining within a precision engineering environment.
  
• Strong proficiency in multi-axis CAM programming (Esprit experience highly desirable but not explicitly required).
  
• Demonstrated capability to machine complex geometries and hold tight tolerances.
  
• Comfortable in a high-mix, fast-paced production environment.
  
• Excellent understanding of tooling, cutting strategies, and machining of difficult materials such as titanium, cobalt chrome, and stainless steels.
  
• Strong analytical skills, problem-solving ability, and close attention to detail.

• Experience with sliding-head / Swiss-type lathes.
  
• Familiarity with automation, probing, macros, and advanced process optimisation.
