They will be using advanced CNC 3-6 axis machinery to help deliver production in the most effective and efficient way, so showing initiative and practiveness is essential.

The candidate should show the ability to think in 3D, adapt with computing, particularly CAD or similar, has a keen attention to detail, and likes to make things. Knowledge of stone, technical drawing, or software like Alphacam will be of benefit but can be developed in role for the right candidate.
The ideal candidate will have worked in a workshop style environment with cutting and programming experience, ideally in stonemasonry but other similar industries would still be relevant. They should have high literacy skills and enjoy working in a busy, labour-intensive environment.
You will need a mixture of technical & practical skills to drive complex cutting machines in producing high quality stone for new build, architectural & conservation projects.
Whilst experience in these areas are preferable, we are open to training the right candidate who aligns with our culture & team work ethic.
