Night Shift CNC / CAD Programmer
Type: Permanent
Reference: 224673035
Job Description:
Night Shift CNC / CAD Programmer (Permanent)
Location: Rugby
Salary: Up to £50,000 basic + overtime (OTE up to £56,000)
Shift: Straight Nights – 46 hours over 4 nights
Why This Role Stands Out
If you’re a CNC / CAD Programmer who enjoys variety, ownership, and seeing jobs through from start to finish, this role delivers in spades.
You’ll join a highly skilled, close-knit team in a breakdown and reverse-engineering environment where no two nights are the same. Expect interesting technical challenges, fast turnarounds, and the satisfaction of producing precision components that really matter.
Add in strong earnings, long weekends, generous holidays, and plenty of overtime, and this is a role that rewards both skill and commitment.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Programming and setting CNC machines, with or without CAD models
- Working primarily on 3-axis and 4-axis machines (XY2 and Leadwells)
- Using Siemens controls (essential)
- Fusion 360 experience desirable (but not essential)
- Taking full ownership of jobs from programming through to completion
- Carrying out your own quality checks
- Supporting breakdowns and urgent turnaround work
- Producing high-precision components for food & beverage, energy, automotive, and aerospace sectors
- Contributing ideas for continuous improvement in a fast-moving shop
What’s In It for You
- Straight night shift: 5pm – 5am
- 46 hours over 4 nights – no Fridays, enjoy a long weekend every week
- Up to £56,000 OTE depending on experience (including shift allowance)
- Plenty of paid overtime, including weekends if desired
- 33 days flexible holiday, increasing every 5 years
- Annual pay reviews
- Genuine career progression in a business that values learning and improvement
- A role where your skills, ideas, and pride in your work truly matter
