Ready to put your skills to work in a business that still values true engineering craft while continually investing in the future? We’re on the lookout for a CNC Miller with strong Heidenhain experience to join a forward-thinking precision manufacturing team in Portsmouth. If you’re a detail-driven CNC Miller who enjoys a calm but focused daytime environment and thrives producing quality parts, this could be a great move.

About the Role As a CNC Miller, you’ll be programming, setting, and operating Heidenhain-controlled milling machines, with Hypermill used offline for more advanced jobs. You’ll be working on high-precision components across sectors including motorsport and advanced engineering — the type of work where standards matter and attention to detail pays off.

• Select tooling, cutting data, and machining strategies
  
  
• Set and operate 3-axis, 4-axis & 5-axis machines
  
  
• Read and interpret complex engineering drawings
  
  
• Perform first-off and in-process inspections
  
  
• Work with engineering and production teams to improve processes
  
  

 

What We’re Looking For

• Proven experience as a programmer
  
  
• Confident with Heidenhain controls (essential)
  
  
• Hypermill experience preferred: other CAD/Cam software also considered
  
  
• Strong knowledge of tooling, feeds & speeds
  
  
• Good understanding of GD&T
  
  
• Quality-focused mindset and problem-solving ability
  
  
• Able to work independently and as part of a team
