Xtrac is the world’s leading designer and manufacturer of specialist transmissions. Our customers include the top motorsports racing series including Formula One, Le Mans, IndyCar and NASCAR and we also supply transmissions for the most exclusive high-performance cars in the world. We are at the forefront of a once-in-a-generation opportunity as the automotive industry transitions from internal combustion to electric and hybrid and our experienced and dedicated teams are using the latest cutting-edge technology to achieve this transition.

About the Role

We’re looking for an experienced CNC Turner to join our expanding and fast-paced manufacturing department as our business continues to grow.

You will be responsible for programming, editing and operating a range of Okuma machines to produce transmission system parts to the company’s quality standards. We take huge pride in the quality of our product, so you’ll be used to working to Quality Control procedures, adhering to, and documenting plans in accordance with these. All components must be packaged correctly to prevent any damage so you must have a good attention to detail and awareness around packaging.

About You

Ideally you will have completed a formal apprenticeship and have general engineering experience including turning and toolmaking. If you have experience within the automotive, aerospace or motorsport industries, this would be a huge advantage.

You’ll be able to understand comprehensive engineering drawings and instructions, be able to visualize finished products and have a good understanding of the properties of the materials we work with. It would be great if you also have CMM and other automated measuring equipment knowledge, but we can train and upskill in this area as required.

Good levels of concentration are a must, as are being able to work both unsupervised and as part of a team. We’re looking for individuals with a self-sufficient attitude, good work ethic and the desire to always improve.

Please state in the comment box on your application, your current shift pattern, and any other shift patterns that you’d consider.
