The posting

Role: R&D Engineer – Fabrication / Prototype Development Location: Orwell, Cambridge

Fabricator by trade? Want to move into R&D and product development?

Accora is a rapidly growing manufacturer of innovative medical equipment, and we're looking for an experienced Fabricator to join our expanding R&D team.

This is not a traditional production fabrication role.

We need someone who is a Fabricator by trade, ideally apprentice trained, who can bring strong hands-on fabrication skills into a fast-paced R&D environment, building, modifying and developing bespoke prototypes and new products.

If you enjoy working from an idea or early-stage design and actually building, testing and improving it, this could be a brilliant next step.

The Role

Working within Accora's R&D team, you'll:

  • Fabricate and build bespoke prototypes and new product concepts
  • Weld, cut, form, modify and assemble components in-house
  • Work alongside Design and R&D Engineers to turn concepts into physical products
  • Modify and improve prototypes through testing and development
  • Solve practical engineering problems in a fast-moving project environment
  • Support products through development towards manufacture

Requirements

The Person

You must be a Fabricator by trade.

We're looking for someone with:

  • Strong fabrication and welding experience
  • Ideally an apprenticeship or recognised fabrication/engineering qualification
  • Experience working on bespoke, one-off or low-volume products
  • Ability to work from engineering drawings and turn designs into finished builds
  • Strong practical problem-solving skills
  • Experience within prototype development or product development would be a major advantage

We're looking for the person who knows how to make things, modify things and solve problems practically.

Benefits

What's On Offer

  • Competitive Salary
  • Excellent long-term career progression
  • Opportunity to develop further into R&D and product development
  • Extensive training and development
  • Good holiday allowance + public holidays
  • Join a growing, well-invested R&D team
  • Work on innovative products that genuinely improve people's lives

This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced Fabricator who wants to take their trade skills beyond traditional production work and become a key part of a genuine R&D and new product development environment.

Apply Now!

If you're a skilled Fabricator looking for something more varied, technical and development-focused, apply today to join Accora's growing R&D team.

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.
