Lead Mechanical Design Engineer

Lead Mechanical Design Engineer

Greater Manchester

I'm recruiting on behalf of an established engineering manufacturer specialising in bespoke bulk solids and powder handling equipment.

This is an opportunity for a Senior Mechanical Design Engineer to take ownership of projects whilst helping modernise and develop the company's engineering capability.

The business designs and manufactures a range of equipment used to handle powders and bulk materials. Much of the work is genuinely bespoke, solving customer-specific challenges rather than configuring standard products.

The role will involve:

• Designing bespoke bulk handling equipment from concept through to manufacture
• Working on conveyors, feeders, mixers, valves and associated process equipment
• Producing and reviewing detailed manufacturing drawings
• Developing and modernising legacy designs into 3D CAD environments
• Working directly with customers to understand applications...
