Estimator & Account Manager – CNC Machining
Ready to move off the shop floor and into a client-facing, commercially rewarding role? We’re looking for a CNC-savvy professional—ideally someone with a background in programming or machining—who’s ready to take the next step into estimating and account management. If you understand how components are made and want to apply that knowledge in a dynamic, customer-focused environment, this could be your perfect move.

Building long-term relationships with customers, ensuring repeat business and mutual success
Supporting onboarding of new clients and contributing to continuous improvement across the team
Balancing technical insight with commercial awareness to minimise risk and maximise value
This is a hybrid role—part technical, part relationship-driven—perfect for someone who’s ready to step away from the machine and into a broader business role.
What We’re Looking ForSolid understanding of CNC machining, ideally from a programming or hands-on background
Strong attention to detail and a methodical approach to quoting and customer support
Excellent communication skills and a collaborative mindset
A proactive attitude and commitment to personal development
Commercial awareness and a genuine interest in helping customers succeed
