Client Overview
Our client are a well-established manufacturing business that has built their reputation on the quality of their products and the efficiency in which they deliver. In recognition of their strong brand and continued growth, we're recruiting for a number of designers to join their vibrant growing team.
Their design focuses on the generation of acoustic enclosures to specifications provided by our acoustic engineering specialists. The designs are largely based on laser cut, folded, and welded sheet metal panels filled with acoustic dampening materials with a variety of mounting, penetration and support features. The panels are then mounted within welded frameworks which must meet structural and lifting standards while also providing support for electrical supplies and components and any additional equipment to meet client specifications. Additional features included on enclosure designs include acoustic sealed doors and inlet/ outlet air attenuation designed to sound dampening specifications.
This is an exciting opportunity for vast experienced individuals. The business takes pride in their design, engineering and manufacturing capabilities whilst remaining at the forefront in their client solutions, both industrial and power. You'll support, grow and continuously improve the manufacture of products and developing new methods to drawing specifications.
