My client are now looking to recruit exceptional mechanical engineers to join their successful and growing product design and development technical team. An understanding of product development processes would be beneficial, but direct experience is not essential for this role.
They provides excellent career opportunities for outstanding engineers. If you are an exceptional, highly motivated individual and have a desire to be challenged, express yourself, and make a difference, this will excite you.
Competitive salaries, together with other benefits such as discretionary bonus and profit related pay schemes are offered and regularly reviewed.
Listed below are some of the key attributes they look for from engineer graduates joining the team:
Broad-based Mechanical Engineering Degree: Your University course should cover a range of engineering disciplines – structures, mechanics, dynamics, fluids, thermodynamics, etc. Technical and intellectual excellence are essential, so good ‘A’ level grades and a 1st or Upper 2nd degree are required (or equivalent qualifications).
Good, confident communicator: Their engineers need to present their ideas persuasively. Good written and verbal communication skills are essential.
Creative problem-solving: Their business is design and to be successful we need to generate novel solutions that are cheaper, more efficient, smaller, more functional, etc.
Logical and well organised: They work under extreme time pressure, and usually engineers will be working on two or more projects at once. To do this efficiently and effectively you need to be well organised in managing your time.
Appreciation of non-functional design aspects: They operate in multi-functional project teams and mechanical engineers need to co-operate with designers and electronics engineers in order to blend visual and functional aspects of a product.
Self-reliant: You will be expected to take responsibility for your technical design work, although other engineers will be happy to advise and we have formal checking procedures in place.
