Mechanical Inspector (CMM Operator & Manual) - Night Shift - Permanent

A great opportunity for a Mechanical Inspector to join an established and growing precision engineering company. You'll be inspecting high-precision, complex components using manual methods and CMM-focused on running/operating existing CMM programs rather than programming from scratch. Strong team environment, training support and premium-rate overtime available.

Key responsibilities

  • Inspect machined parts/assemblies to engineering drawings and quality requirements
  • Carry out manual inspection using gauges, micrometres, verniers/calliper's, bore gauges and other precision equipment
  • Operate CMM equipment to confirm product conformity (running proven programs, setting up parts/fixtures, checking results)
  • Complete and review inspection paperwork including First Article Inspection Reports (FAIRs)
  • Raise/record non-conformances and support investigations with Production/Engineering
  • Maintain accurate inspection records and support continuous improvement on quality issues

What we're looking for

  • Solid inspection background in precision engineering/manufacturing (mid-skill level)
  • Confident reading engineering drawings; GD&T knowledge beneficial
  • Experience operating a CMM in a production/inspection environment (PC-DMIS helpful but not essential)
  • Comfortable making basic set-up adjustments and following existing routines; full CMM programming is not required (training can be provided for minor edits if needed)
  • Reliable, methodical approach and able to work a night shift

Permanent role with salary dependent on experience. You must have current UK right to work. Visa sponsorship is not available. HRGO are a recruitment agency supporting UK manufacturing and aim to respond to all applications.
