Trainee CAD Programmer

We’re not looking for a CV. We’re looking for a person.

We’re hiring a Trainee CAD Programmer to join our small, busy Programming team. If you’re switched on, good with people, take pride in your work, and want to learn a proper skill we want to hear from you. No CAD experience required. We’ll put the right person through an apprenticeship or relevant qualification and teach you everything else on the job.

Salary: £27,500 + Apprenticeship/Training Support

You’ll be a key part of getting our fans from order to factory floor. That means:

•      Producing and sending technical drawings to customers for approval

•      Issuing parts to our laser cutters and liaising with factory operators

•      Scheduling and supporting factory production

•      Written and verbal communications with customers regarding drawing and design

•      Supporting the wider contracts and sales team

•      Learning our products and our software.

We care more about who you are than what you’ve done. Specifically:

•      You’re comfortable on a computer and pick up new software quickly

•      You communicate clearly in writing and in person

•      You’re organised and can manage your own workload without being chased

•      You take things seriously and follow through

•      Basic AutoCAD experience is a bonus, but absolutely not essential

All candidates will complete a short practical test before any offer is made, nothing to fear, just a chance for us to see how you think.

This is a permanent role reporting directly into one of our directors.

Family-owned and Manchester-based, we design and manufacture industrial fans with a reputation built on quality and reliability. Our team is small, so the people in it matter. We invest in the right people for the long term.

Send your CV and a short note about why this role appeals to you to [email protected]. If you don’t have a CV, don’t let that put you off, a covering letter telling us about yourself is just as welcome.
