As brand custodians, we are lucky to work for a dynamic, thriving, and ethical business, with people from diverse backgrounds, who bring their true selves to work, and where anyone can grow their career.
We are guided by three core values that are at the heart of everything we do: be yourself, act courageously, and show you care. They make us who we are and inspire us to push boundaries, embrace our individuality, and stand up for what's right.
SO, WHAT’S THE STORY?
Our product is steeped in history, and it is our role as brand custodians to protect it.

The future is going to be in your hands, its going to be hands on and dirty work, but a good mix of old school machining, problem solving, and modern CNC analysis.
As our Apprentice Engineer you will be responsible for:
- Support production of moulds, jigs, and ancillary equipment
- Supporting Prototype engineers in their work, inc. planning & evaluation of work
- Support, maintain and improve current production.
- Support the research and development to trial of new processes and technologies.
THE STUFF THAT SETS YOU APART

- Puts Safety first.
- Ability to work with technical drawings and documents
- Hands on working, with old and modern machines
- Problem solver, and able to use initiative when needed
