Job Description

Role Purpose (Job Profile):

To produce high quality components in a time effective manner to meet the demands required to support the development and production for the formula one race car and external customers.

Main Duties:

  • To ensure components are produced in the most efficient, cost-effective way whilst keeping lead-times to a minimum.
  • To conduct CAM programming and machining operations as directed by the Supervisor/Team Leader ensuring that all steps are taken to meet given deadlines.
  • To proactively liaise with both fellow machinists within the Prototype Machine Shop and other areas within the business to ensure best practice is established and utilised.
  • Carry out all possible inspection during the machining of any first off components, establish that a first off is correct and ensure that the remainder of the batch meets the same standard.
  • Ensure that all relevant shop floor data is collected and is accurately recorded using Data Collection Software when required.
  • Ensure communication to other shifts is thorough and accurate so that a smooth handover results in minimum loss in production time using written and verbal communication as necessary.
  • All information pertaining to the running of the job must be clearly and accurately recorded to ensure the smooth running of future demand using the preferred handover notebook.

  • Work to quality standards and identify and contribute ways to continuously improve department and personal performance.
  • Ensure understanding of cost cap rules and requirements.

Core Competencies:

  • The need to run multiple machines and plan-ahead is regularly required.
  • Be able to demonstrate a good depth of machining knowledge, both CNC and manual, in a low volume, high accuracy, fast paced prototype environment.

Qualifications and Experience Level:

  • Good level of knowledge manufacturing metallic and non-metallic components from aircraft grade metallic and high-quality engineering plastics.
  • A strong knowledge of setting and operating 5 axis CNC machine tools.

  • Quality - Achieve and maintain a first-off acceptance rate of ≥95% across all machining operations within the first six months, demonstrating consistency with GD&T requirements and reducing rework loops. Number of scrap NCRs where operator error is the root cause is 0.
  • Delivery - Demonstrate proficiency on all assigned CNC machines, achieving independent unsupervised operation with sign-off from the Team Leader within three months.
  • Delivery – Consistently complete shift handovers to the required standard, with zero escalations attributable to missing or inaccurate handover information.
  • Continuous Improvement - Contribute at least five documented process improvement suggestions to the Team Leader, with evidence of follow-through on any agreed actions.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
