CNC Operator/ Programmer/ Turner

With 89 years of engineering heritage, DYN-Metal is a leading specialist in high-performance bronze and brass casting and precision machining. We manufacture critical sliding wear components and bearings for heavy industry global leaders across steelmaking, maritime, mining, and petrochemicals.

Our modern CNC workshop is equipped with late-model Yamazaki Mazak and DMG Mori turning and milling centres.

The Role

We are seeking an experienced and self-motivated CNC Programmer, Setter, and Operator to take ownership of precision turning projects. Working largely on your own initiative within our small-batch production workflow, you will turn rough castings into high-precision finished components to tight geometric and dimensional tolerances.

Key Responsibilities

*

Programming, setting, and operating CNC turning machines.

*

Producing high-precision parts from engineering drawings in small batch runs and bespoke short production.

*

Performing full dimensional self-inspection using standard mechanical metrology and measuring equipment.

*

Managing tool selection, offsets, feeds, speeds, and machine setup efficiently to optimize cycle times.

Requirements

*

Proven background setting and programming CNC lathes/turning centres to tight tolerances.

*

Experience with Mazatrol controls is a distinct advantage, but full training will be provided for programmers experienced in other controls (e.g., Fanuc, Siemens, Heidenhain).

*

Ability to read, interpret, and work confidently from technical engineering drawings.

*

Proficient with standard precision measuring equipment (micrometers, bore gauges, height gauges, etc.).

*

Experience with small-batch work, jobbing shop environments, or heavy industrial materials (bronzes/brasses) is a plus.

What We Offer

*

Competitive salary based on experience + regular paid overtime opportunities.
