Elevation Recruitment Group are supporting our client with appointing an ambitious and driven Process Engineer to join their teams!

If you are looking to take on a Process Engineer role where you can genuinely influence how products are made, not just tick boxes then this one could be for you!

This position sits within a specialist manufacturing environment producing complex, high-precision components for the industrial gas turbine sector. You’ll be joining a business that’s proud of its engineering heritage, with plenty of new product introduction activity as well as long-standing legacy work that still needs clever thinking and continuous improvement.

As a Process Engineer, you’ll work hand in hand with Process Owners, Engineers and wider production teams to make sure manufacturing processes run smoothly, reliably and efficiently. If you enjoy figuring out what the data is really saying, spotting improvements others might miss and taking ownership of solutions, you’ll probably thrive here.
