Are you a hands-on Process Engineer with a passion for automated manufacturing? We're looking for someone just like you to join our Newport team on a 6-month fixed-term contract!

This is your chance to play a pivotal role in both modifying two existing products and introducing two exciting new ones into production.

• Modify and optimise existing production equipment to suit updated and new product designs.
  
• Program and operate automated machinery like conveyors, cutters, and folding machines.
  
• Tweak machine sequences and settings for top performance.
  
• Lead pre-production trials and support production rollouts.
  
• Collaborate with the remote Product Development Engineer to ensure designs are ready to hit the shop floor.
  
  The successful Process Engineer will: -
  
  
• Solid experience in automated manufacturing environments.
  
• Strong hands-on skills with machinery for cutting, folding, gluing, or printing.
  
• The ability to troubleshoot and fine-tune machine timing, speed, and sequence.
  
• A proactive mindset and love for practical problem-solving.
  
• Confidence working in a dynamic, production-driven environment.
