Description:
Technical Lead
£60,000 to £75,000 | East Suffolk | At least four days on-site
This role gives you technical authority over substantial bespoke automation projects, from design through assembly and commissioning to customer sign-off.
You will be the person who makes the difficult technical calls when risks or engineering problems emerge. Working alongside project managers and engineers across multiple disciplines, you will keep projects moving without every major decision being escalated to the same small group of senior people.
The work is practical and close to the machinery. You will oversee several projects, identify risks early and bring the right engineering teams together to solve problems. You will also support customer discussions, design reviews, commissioning plans and technical decisions throughout the project lifecycle.
Alongside delivery, you will mentor engineers and help develop the next generation of technical decision-makers within the business.
This will suit someone with a strong automation or special-purpose machinery background who has operated at senior technical leadership level. You may currently be working as a Technical Manager, Engineering Manager or Technical Director within a smaller machine builder.
You will need broad knowledge across automated machinery, including design, controls, robotics, manufacturing and commissioning. More importantly, you must be comfortable taking ownership when projects reach their most technically demanding stages.
The role is based in east Suffolk and requires at least four days per week on-site. The salary is £60,000 to £75,000, with £75,000 as the firm ceiling. There is no bonus.
