Looking to develop your engineering career with a business that offers training, mentoring and genuine progression?
Our client, a specialist manufacturer of industrial filtration and separation equipment, is recruiting an Assistant Technical Engineer for a newly created role.
Working alongside the Technical Manager, the Assistant Technical Engineer will support projects from initial enquiry and quotation through to manufacture and delivery. You will build specialist technical knowledge while developing the coordination and leadership skills to take on greater responsibility.
The Role
As Assistant Technical Engineer, you will:
Review customer requirements, technical specifications and engineering drawings.
Help prepare quotations, proposals, equipment datasheets and bills of materials.
Support technical calculations and the selection of equipment, materials and components.
Liaise with customers, suppliers and workshop colleagues to keep projects moving.
Coordinate technical information, monitor deadlines and highlight potential issues.
Take ownership of tasks, contribute ideas and support engineering improvements. About You
The Assistant Technical Engineer role could suit someone with an HNC, HND or degree in mechanical engineering or a related discipline. Relevant practical engineering experience will also be considered, including candidates looking to move from a hands-on position into an office-based role.
You will bring:
An understanding of mechanical systems, engineering principles and technical drawings.
A personable, confident approach and the ability to build positive working relationships.
Strong organisation, attention to detail and problem-solving skills.
Initiative, a willingness to learn and ambition to progress.
Good IT skills and the ability to learn new software. An understanding of machining, welding or manufacturing processes would be useful. SolidWorks 3D experience is beneficial but not essential.
Previous filtration experience is not required. Full product training will be provided.

Structured training and ongoing professional development.
Direct mentoring from the Technical Manager and experienced engineers.
Exposure to varied engineering projects and industrial applications.
Opportunities to develop project coordination and management skills.
