Supplier Manufacturing Engineer

  • Warwick (Warwickshire)
  • Design / Civil engineering / Industrial engineering

Job description

Beyond Property, Purchasing, HR and IT, more than being part of our Finance or Marketing teams, beyond even Sales and Service, every role in every business area offers unique opportunities to make an impact on the future of mobility and the automotive industry.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Over 80% of the parts and materials in our vehicles are supplied to us by our supplier partners. And with the automotive industry in the midst of a revolution there is no better place to influence the future of our products than by joining our Supplier Technical Assistance team as a Supplier Quality Engineer.

You'll join a team of engineers working on facilities and processes within our global supplier manufacturing locations. Through collaboration with our Product Engineering and Purchasing functions, as well as our supplier partners, you'll ensure that tooling, equipment, and facilities meet the requirements for our premium vehicles.

You'll be supporting our vision of “Driving Manufacturing Excellence into our Global Supply Chain” through working both in internal and external locations to add value to how we source, design, develop, and manage supplier parts and value streams, in order to meet the demands of our customers.

A key part of this role will be to manage the supplier's manufacturing facility and supply chain through the Supplier Product Delivery Plan to ensure it meets our critical project timings and targets. You'll deliver robust achievement of key milestones and ensure that our supplier manufacturing facilities deliver parts consistently on-time, and in line with our manufacturing demand.

The roles are varied, challenging and hugely rewarding – and as well as all the benefits and support you'd expect from a leading automotive company we also offer the chance to work with and influence cutting edge manufacturing practices and technology.

WHAT YOU'LL NEED

Alongside experience gained in a lean manufacturing environment, you'll be a strong communicator who is able to demonstrate excellent stakeholder and relationship management skills. You'll challenge existing thinking in a positive way, whilst building credibility and trust through experience and personal style.

You'll need to be a determined individual and self-driven, committed, and results-orientated, working with pace, energy and confidence. You'll be able to coach, challenge, and drive internal and external teams to deliver from concept to reality, both on-time and within budget.

Ideally you will have practical experience of applying lean manufacturing tools and process design / engineering activities.

Jaguar Land Rover considers that this role does not meet the criteria to be considered within the Home Office Shortage Occupation list. Therefore, Jaguar Land Rover will not support an application for visa sponsorship and all applicants for this role must have an unrestricted right to work for an indefinite period in the UK.

SO WHY US?

Bring all this to the home of premium innovation, and you'll find the opportunities to further your career with a world-class team, a discounted car purchase and lease scheme for you and your family, membership of a competitive pension plan and performance related bonus scheme. All this and more makes Jaguar Land Rover the perfect place to continue your journey.

Jaguar Land Rover is committed to equal opportunity for all.
