Apprentice Manufacturing Engineer at OXFORD INSTRUMENTS PLC
Be an employee, not just an apprentice. A Manufacturing Engineering Degree Apprenticeship doesn’t have to mean ticking off tasks in a boxed-off, pigeon-hole role. Instead of being left to your own devices, let’s kickstart your career working at the heart of cutting-edge technical devices.
In Oxford Instruments Plasma Technology, you’ll be in the thick of exciting, evolving technology at a global manufacturing business driving solutions across microchip technology, quantum computing, biomedical devices, renewable energy, battery-powered cars, and much more.
Rather than desk-defined duties and repetitive routines, we’ll embrace your curiosity and tenacity and empower you to engage and problem-solve. We’ll drive your learning and career development by supporting your active engagement in meetings, teamwork, and tangible problem-solving.
As a Manufacturing Degree Engineer with Oxford Instruments, your daily duties would include:
- Combining your college studies, office based and practical training. Alongside skilled professionals, you’ll work on our documentation and practically on our systems. You’ll have hands on experience and be empowered to query and question.
- Adding ideas and knowledge to our design process and manufacturing ability and our operational practices and techniques, you’ll soon be a proactive, autonomous, and hands-on contributor to the productionisation of semiconductor tool manufacturing.
- Your motivation and ambition to both challenge and be challenged will be harnessed, not restricted. A key contributor to improving the quality of our offering, you’ll help to solve tangible engineering and technical problems.
This is a great time to join our business. Amid double-turnover growth ambitions, we’re also on the cusp of moving to a brand-new site comprising a clean environment, science and development labs, open-air spaces, onsite parking, and a full catering service.
