Job Description
Manufacturing Engineer
8 month contract – Outside IR35
Immediate start
Sunbury on Thames
Our client are a leading manufacturer providing specialist solutions to a variety of industries such as aerospace, power generation, rail and oil and gas industries. They are looking for an experienced Manufacturing Engineer to join the team.
Manufacturing Engineer
Working across operations, supply chain and design engineering to provide manufacturing engineering expertise in supporting existing and new products, defining new and supporting existing processes. You will assist in the implementation of strategic Lean initiatives throughout the Company, leading some Continuous Improvement projects.
Main Duties/Responsibilities
Work with manufacturing cell leaders, lean co-ordinator and design engineering to improve process efficiencies
Implement ‘Standard work’, generating & maintaining manufacturing documentation (SOP’s, Routings, “Visual Factory” displays)
Creation & Maintenance of Routings in the MRP system
Implement lean manufacturing methods (e.g. 1-piece flow lines, visual factory) to reduce throughput times, rework/scrap and work in progress
Implement basic improvement tools, from 5S, 7 Wastes, Visual Management and Standardised Work balanced assembly lines where single (best) piece flow philosophies are employed
Implement any required layout changes, ensuring both the facilities and maintenance teams are fully involved
