CNC Turner

Cubed Talent is proud to be partnering exclusively with a growing precision engineering business in Guiseley to recruit an experienced CNC Turner.

You will work within a small turning department, jointly responsible for five CNC lathes, taking each job from initial programming right through to final inspection. The role demands a high degree of skill and ownership, this isn't a button-pushing role. You'll be expected to programme, set and run your own work, produce quality components and take pride in what you make.

• Programming CNC lathes using Alphacam CAM software

• Handling batch sizes ranging from one-off prototypes to production runs of up to 400 parts
• De-burring, quality checking and final inspection of finished components
• Working both independently and collaboratively within the turning team

What We're Looking For The ideal candidate will bring:

• Strong, proven experience programming, setting and operating CNC lathes - Doosan and Haas specifically
• Proficiency in Alphacam
• Experience machining a range of metals to tight tolerances
• The ability to manage the full manufacturing process autonomously
• Experience on mill turn lathes would be a distinct advantage
• A reliable, quality-focused approach and the ability to work well in a small team

What's on Offer

• Starting salary of £37,500 PA negotiable depending on experience
• 28 days holiday including Bank Holidays
• Discretionary additional two weeks paid leave over Christmas depending on business requirements
• Day shift only with early Friday finish - 07:30 - 16:00 Mon to Thursday, 07:30 to 13:30 Friday
