• Lead dimensional maturation activities for front and rear closures, including doors, hood, tailgate, and associated interfaces
• Own gap & flush performance, ensuring alignment to product and aesthetic targets
• Plan, execute, and interpret CMM measurement strategies for BIW and vehicle builds
• Analyse dimensional data to identify trends, root causes, and corrective actions
• Work closely with Manufacturing Engineers, Process Engineers, and Trim & Final teams to drive robust dimensional control
• Support build events, pilot builds, and launch readiness activities
• Apply statistical analysis (SPC, variation studies) to drive capability improvements
• Influence tooling, joining strategies, fixturing, and process changes to improve dimensional outcomes
• Support supplier and internal issue resolution related to dimensional quality

Key Interfaces

• Body in White Manufacturing
• Trim & Final Assembly
• Process & Manufacturing Engineering
• Quality and Metrology Teams
• Design Engineering (BIW / Closures)

Skills & Experience Required

• Proven experience in Dimensional Maturation or Dimensional Engineering within the Automotive sector

• Hands‑on experience with CMM measurement and dimensional data analysis
• Solid knowledge of gap & flush requirements and vehicle fit & finish standards
• Experience working cross‑functionally in high‑volume manufacturing environments
• Strong problem‑solving skills using structured methodologies (e.g., 8D, DMAIC)
• Ability to interpret GD&T and technical drawings

Desirable Skills

• Familiarity with digital metrology tools and dimensional simulation
• Experience supporting new model launches
• Knowledge of fixturing, tooling maturation, and process capability

What We Offer

• Opportunity to influence vehicle fit, finish, and perceived quality
• Exposure to full vehicle lifecycle from early builds to production launch
• Collaborative, engineering‑driven environment within a leading automotive organisation
• Competitive salary and benefits package

 

Initial 12 month contract with possibility for extension. 

This is a unique opportunity to be directly involved in the launch of world‑leading performance vehicles, combining hands‑on engineering with cutting‑edge manufacturing processes.
