Job description
Metrology / CMM Engineer

Shape the future of precision engineering

Are you ready to take ownership of metrology at a strategic level—not just program machines, but redefine how measurement drives performance across an entire engineering group?

We’re looking for a forward-thinking Metrology / CMM Engineer to lead the transformation of measurement practices across multiple sites. This is a high-impact role where you’ll move beyond day-to-day programming and step into a position of influence—building a unified, best-in-class metrology strategy that improves accuracy, efficiency, and productivity.

The Opportunity

You’ll be the driving force behind a Group-wide metrology evolution, starting with CMM optimisation and expanding into a fully standardised measurement framework.

From analysing current processes to implementing cutting-edge strategies, your work will directly impact:

  • Measurement accuracy and repeatability
  • Production throughput and efficiency
  • Reduction of waste and over-processing
  • Standardisation across multiple engineering environments
What You’ll Be Doing

Evaluate & Challenge the Status Quo

  • Review existing CMM programs, measurement strategies, and inspection frequencies
  • Identify inefficiencies in equipment use, software, and processes
  • Conduct site visits to assess capability, performance, and best practices

Design the Future of Metrology

  • Build and deploy a Group-wide CMM & Metrology Strategy
  • Standardise programming methods, inspection plans, and reporting structures
  • Define training frameworks and competency standards

Optimise & Innovate

  • Reduce cycle times through smarter probing strategies and routines
  • Introduce automation and minimise operator intervention
  • Improve throughput via fixturing, offline programming, and advanced techniques

Lead & Influence

  • Act as the technical authority for metrology across the business
  • Collaborate with Quality, Manufacturing, Design, and Operations teams
  • Support audits, customer requirements, and new product introductions
What You Bring
  • Strong experience as a CMM Programmer/Engineer in aerospace or precision engineering
  • Expertise in
  • (or similar CMM software)
  • Solid understanding of GD&T, complex geometries, and engineering drawings
  • Proven ability in MSA, SPC, and capability studies
  • Experience improving or standardising metrology processes across sites

Bonus points if you have:

  • Exposure to advanced metrology (laser scanning, CT, non-contact systems)
  • Knowledge of lean manufacturing and continuous improvement
  • A degree or HNC/HND in Engineering (Mechanical, Aerospace, Manufacturing)
  • CMM or metrology certifications
Why This Role Stands Out

This isn’t just another engineering job. It’s a chance to:

  • Influence strategy at a group level
  • Work across multiple sites and technologies
  • Drive real, measurable improvements in performance
  • Be recognised as a technical leader in metrology
Ready to Lead Precision?

If you’re passionate about measurement, driven by improvement, and ready to step into a role where your expertise shapes the bigger picture, this is your next move.
