After all, in the beginning, our founder, sea captain Robert Fergusson, didn't particularly care about paint.
When he founded our company in 1921, he just wanted to keep his ship intact and stumbled upon a valuable solution.
Today, that discovery is Rust-Oleum Corporation.

Use tools ranging from common hand and power tools, such as hammers, hoists, saws, drills, and wrenches, to precision measuring instruments and electrical and electronic testing devices.
Perform inspections and preventive maintenance to ensure compliance with safety and regulatory requirements as well as to ensure equipment reliability.
Work with filling line operators to efficiently change over line equipment for different label, container, and packaging sizes.
Improve OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) on the filling lines by Pareto analysis of OEE data and implementation of Lean Manufacturing tools to reduce downtime.
Maintain all operating equipment in satisfactory condition.

Our client is the UK's market leader in the manufacture of customer-focused vehicles mounted equipment.
We are seeking a Lead Principal Design Engineer / Manager to take ownership of the mechanical design function at a management level reporting into the Technical Director.
This is a lead role, managing a small mechanical design team while remaining technically "hands-on" to ensure the design and engineering integrity of every vehicle that leaves the site.
*As the Lead Design Engineer, you must have Fabrication expertise in sheet metal and platework ideally. The primary challenge in this role is to address a critical departmental bottleneck: designs are currently transitioning to production without fully engineered drawings.
We need a structural specialist with a management mindset who can overhaul design standards and implement the necessary discipline to ensure every CAD release is 100% manufacture-ready.
You will introduce the structure and technical standards (BS8888) required to ensure that complex mechanical designs move seamlessly from concept to the job-shop floor.
Key Responsibilities
Design Excellence: Design & Develop concepts & Prototypes and feasilbility modelllings.Create and oversee comprehensive part, assembly, and installation drawings.
You will be the final gatekeeper for quality, cost, and performance targets.
Leadership & Mentorship: Manage a small team of designers with a dedicated focus on professional development—mentoring them in technical standards, fabrication logic, and industry best practices.
Lifecycle Management: Manage the full design lifecycle—from concept and BOM management to engineering change (ECN) and release workflows.
Production Liaison: Work closely with the Technical Director and the production teams to optimise designs for sheet metal and platework fabrication.
Innovation: Actively research and implement new technologies and "error-proofing" techniques to improve vehicle performance and manufacturability.
Technical Requirements & Mindset
Fabrication Expertise: A heavy-duty background in sheet metal and platework is essential.
You must understand how metal behaves during the folding, welding, and assembly processes.
Industry Context: Experience within vehicle manufacturingis a significant advantage.
Expert-level proficiency in SolidWorks is essential for this role.
Analytical Leadership: Ability to use risk-mitigation tools and Continuous Improvement (CI) methodologies to prevent design failures before they reach production.
Deep understanding of BS8888 / GD&T drawing standards and safety policies within a manufacturing environment.
Qualifications
Degree in Engineering or Manufacturing preferred.
Why Join?
This is an opportunity to move into a management-level position where you aren't just maintaining a system, but actively building it.
You will have the autonomy to define the "Gold Standard" for a market leader and see your engineering decisions reflected in high-value vehicles on the road.
Benefits include: Competitive salary up to £65,000 per annum, free on-site parking, and a direct reporting line to the Technical Director.#design #designengineering #mechanicaldesign ....Read more...
