To succeed in this role, you will have:

• Proven experience as a CNC Machinist in a precision engineering or aerospace environment
• Confidence working to tight tolerances and with small batch/one-off parts
• Familiarity with Fanuc, Mazatrol, or similar CNC control systems

• Availability to commit to a full-time, site-based role

These are 6-month contracts based on-site in Fareham, offering an hourly rate starting from £18.05 per hour PAYE, plus shift allowance (earlies or lates) and with overtime offered. You'll be joining a world-class manufacturing facility with excellent processes, tooling, and support teams in place.
