Process Engineer

Process Engineer – 3 Positions Available

Droitwich Spa | £35,000–£39,000 | Full-time | On-site

Gapp Search is working with a growing engineering and manufacturing business in Droitwich Spa that is expanding its process engineering team and recruiting three Process Engineers.

This is a hands-on manufacturing role focused on improving production efficiency, standardising processes, supporting quality, and driving continuous improvement across a low-volume, high-value engineering environment.

What you’ll be doing

• Design and implement improved manufacturing process flows and production layouts to increase efficiency.
• Analyse production workflows to identify standardisation and continuous improvement opportunities.
• Develop and maintain standardised work instructions, SOPs, visual standards, control plans and process flow diagrams.
• Conduct PFMEAs and use DFMA principles to improve manufacturability and assembly efficiency.
• Manage NCRs and drive corrective and preventive actions through structured problem-solving.
• Implement Lean methodologies and modular build strategies to improve production flow, quality and consistency.
• Maintain accurate records of process changes within BOM structures and routing systems, ensuring full traceability.
• Support production teams with practical process improvements, training and best-practice guidance.
• Ensure manufacturing processes comply with health, safety and environmental requirements.
• Work closely with Design, Quality, Production and Supply Chain to improve quality, cost and delivery performance.

What we’re looking for

• Strong experience in manufacturing engineering, process engineering or a similar role, ideally within process plant, HVAC, modular build or engineered products.
• Strong knowledge of DFMA, PFMEA, control plans, process standardisation and continuous improvement.
• Experience designing manufacturing process flows and production layouts.
• Good understanding of manufacturing processes, materials and trade disciplines within a practical production environment.
• Experience developing SOPs, work instructions, visual standards and training materials.
• Practical experience with NCR management and structured corrective-action methods.
• Experience with BOM structures, routing systems and maintaining process-change traceability.
• Understanding of Lean manufacturing and modular-build principles.
• Strong project management, organisational and cross-functional working skills.

The opportunity

This is a strong opportunity to join a growing engineering operation where process improvement has a direct impact on production performance, quality and cost.

You’ll have the chance to influence how products are manufactured, introduce better processes and tooling, and work across engineering, production and quality in a technically demanding environment.
