Are you a CNC professional who thrives on precision and craftsmanship — not mass production?

We’re working with a long-established engineering business based in Crewkerne, Somerset, with over a century of expertise behind them. They produce high-spec, one-off and low-volume components for leading global brands, and they’re now looking for a CNC Lathe Setter/Programmer to join their skilled Machine Shop team.

This is a great opportunity for someone who values the art of machining — producing unique, technically challenging parts in a hot, loud, but highly skilled environment. You won’t find conveyor belts or repetitive runs here — just craftsmanship, pride, and precision.

The Role:

Set and operate CNC lathes (2, 3 & 4 axis), milling machines, and drills
Program machines using Fanuc or similar controls
Read and interpret detailed technical drawings and setup sheets
Work to tight tolerances on small-batch and one-off custom parts
Measure and inspect your work to ensure the highest quality
Tackle problems head-on and collaborate with experienced colleagues
What We're Looking For:

Ideally 3+ years’ experience in CNC turning
Comfortable with Fanuc controls (or similar)
High attention to detail — quality always comes first
Ability to read and work from complex engineering drawings
Physically fit and able to work in a hot, noisy workshop
A hands-on team player who takes pride in their work
What’s in It for You:

Competitive pay: £12.38 – £16.00 per hour, based on experience
Quarterly bonus scheme
Day shifts with early finish on Fridays
On-the-job training and support from a skilled team
Work on interesting, one-of-a-kind parts for global customers
Be part of a company with a long history and strong future
