Job Description

We are seeking a meticulous and reliable CNC Operator to join a dynamic and well-established engineering firm in the heart of Manchester M22. This role is pivotal to their production floor, involving the operation of advanced Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machinery to produce precision components for a variety of high-value industries, including automotive, aerospace, and specialist fabrication. The employer is known for investing in modern technology and fostering a culture of continuous improvement, offering a stable and supportive environment where skilled operators can truly excel. This position has become available due to increased production demands and represents a fantastic chance to secure ongoing work with a reputable local business.

By applying through Recruitment Agency London, you gain direct access to this opportunity without the lengthy traditional application process. We act as your advocate, negotiating on your behalf to secure a competitive pay rate that reflects your skills and experience. Our deep understanding of the Manchester M22 industrial landscape means we can place you with employers who value quality and professionalism. Just as we successfully place Warehouse Operatives and Handymen, we ensure a perfect fit for technical roles like CNC operation, managing all the logistics so you can focus on your craft from day one.

Key Responsibilities

  • Safely set up, operate, and monitor CNC milling and turning machines (e.g., 3 and 5-axis) according to engineering drawings and specifications.
  • Perform first-off and in-process inspections using precision measuring equipment such as micrometres, callipers, and gauges to ensure components meet tight tolerances.
  • Load raw materials, select and install appropriate tooling, and input machine programs, making minor offsets and adjustments as required.
  • Conduct routine preventative maintenance on machinery and maintain a clean, organised, and safe working environment adhering to all health and safety protocols.
  • Accurately complete production paperwork and quality control documentation, reporting any machine faults or quality issues to the shift supervisor promptly.

What We're Looking For

  • Proven experience as a CNC Operator or CNC Machinist in a fast-paced manufacturing or engineering environment.
  • Ability to read and interpret technical engineering drawings and geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T).
  • Strong mechanical aptitude and a keen eye for detail, with a commitment to producing high-quality, precision work.
  • A proactive, reliable attitude and the ability to work effectively both independently and as part of a team. A valid forklift licence (desirable but not essential).

Salary & Benefits

We believe in transparent and fair remuneration. For this CNC Operator role in Manchester M22, we offer a highly competitive hourly pay rate, which will be discussed in detail during your registration and is contingent upon your specific experience and qualifications. Pay is processed weekly, providing you with reliable and regular income. In addition to the financial package, working through Recruitment Agency London comes with significant benefits:

  • Weekly Pay: Get paid every Friday without fail for the hours you’ve worked.
  • Holiday Pay Accrual: Build up paid holiday entitlement in line with statutory requirements.
  • Pension Scheme: Option to enrol in a workplace pension scheme.
  • Temp-to-Perm Pathway: This temporary role offers a genuine opportunity to transition into a permanent position with the client company for performers who excel.
  • Career Support: Access to a dedicated consultant who provides ongoing support and can alert you to new opportunities, whether you're looking for a Scaffold Labourer position or aim to advance into CNC programming.
  • Safety & Compliance: We ensure all worksites meet health and safety standards and provide any necessary Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) required for the role.

Frequently Asked Questions

What experience do I need to apply for this CNC Operator role?

We are looking for candidates with proven, hands-on experience operating CNC milling or turning machines in a professional setting. You should be comfortable reading engineering drawings, performing basic machine setups, and using precision measuring tools. Relevant qualifications (e.g., NVQ Level 2/3 in Engineering) are advantageous but not always essential if you have strong practical experience.

Is this role only temporary, or is there a chance of a permanent position?

This specific role is advertised as a temporary placement with an immediate start. However, the client company frequently uses temporary assignments as a pathway to permanent employment for reliable and skilled operators. Performance permitting, there is a strong potential for this to become a temp-to-perm opportunity, which we will facilitate.

What shift patterns are typically available for CNC jobs in Manchester M22?

Shift patterns vary by employer. This particular role is likely to be on a standard dayshift (e.g., Monday to Friday, 7 am - 4 pm). However, we also recruit for afternoon, night, and weekend shifts across Greater Manchester. We discuss your availability during registration to match you with suitable roles, much like we do for weekend jobs in other sectors.

How quickly can I start after applying?

We specialise in immediate starts. For candidates with all documentation ready (proof of right to work, etc.), the process from application to first shift can often be completed within 48-72 hours. The speed depends on the client's interview schedule, but we expedite everything on our end.

Does Recruitment Agency London offer roles outside of engineering?

Absolutely. We are a full-service recruitment agency. While this page focuses on CNC Operator roles, we actively place talent across numerous sectors. If you're also skilled as a Scaffold Labourer, a Registered Nurse, or a GP Receptionist, we encourage you to register with us to hear about all relevant opportunities. Explore our jobs board for the latest vacancies.

What support do you provide after I've started a role?

Your dedicated consultant will conduct regular check-ins to ensure you are settled and happy in your role. We handle all timesheet and payroll queries, and are your point of contact for any workplace issues. Our support is ongoing for as long as you work with us, whether on one assignment or many.
