High performance isn't a given. It’s built on standards.
Standards that have driven McLaren for over 60 years.
And if you’re ready for the challenge, that standard is yours to own.
Burning enthusiasm. Constant improvement. The thrill in the pursuit of better.
That’s how we build a legacy. And how you build a career here.
Because racing isn’t just something we do. It’s who we are.
We are racers.
Are you?

As a Manufacturing and Process Technician within our Machine Shop Manufacturing Engineering Team, you will provide practical, hands-on support to develop, implement and maintain manufacturing processes, controls and documentation across the Machine Shop.

Working closely with Manufacturing Engineering, Production and other supporting functions, you will help improve manufacturing efficiency, product quality and process reliability. You will also support infrastructure and continuous improvement activities that increase throughput and reduce costs without compromising component quality or health and safety.

What You'll Do:

• Evaluate and improve existing manufacturing processes, controls and working practices.
• Support the development, implementation and maintenance of new manufacturing processes.
• Produce and maintain operating procedures, process documentation and best-practice guides.
• Work with Manufacturing Engineering and Production teams to resolve process-related issues.
• Collect, analyse and interpret manufacturing data to identify trends and improvement opportunities.
• Support continuous improvement initiatives focused on throughput, cost and production reliability.
• Assist with manufacturing trials, process validation and the introduction of new equipment and working practices.
• Support the design and introduction of jigs and fixtures for metallic machining activities.
• Contribute to Machine Shop infrastructure projects.
• Maintain accurate records and ensure process changes are documented and communicated effectively.
• Promote consistent working methodologies across multiple shift patterns.
• Maintain high standards of quality, safety, organisation and process discipline

What You'll Bring:

You will have experience working in a manufacturing, production or engineering environment, together with a practical understanding of manufacturing processes and process controls.

You will also bring:

• Strong analytical and structured problem-solving skills.
• Close attention to detail and the ability to interpret manufacturing information, drawings, process instructions and technical documentation.
• Experience producing or maintaining operating procedures, work instructions or process documentation.
• An understanding of continuous improvement principles.
• The ability to collect, interpret and present data to support effective decision-making.
• Confidence working across Manufacturing, Engineering, Quality and other supporting teams.
• Good working knowledge of Microsoft Office applications.

Experience using manufacturing, production or MRP systems would be advantageous. Knowledge of Lean or Six Sigma principles, experience with CAD/CAM systems, or previous involvement in introducing new equipment, processes or working practices would also be beneficial.

Personal Attributes:

You will be practical, proactive and comfortable working in a fast-paced manufacturing environment. Methodical and organised, you will be able to manage changing priorities, respond effectively to production demands and take ownership of tasks through to completion.

Strong written and verbal communication skills will help you engage confidently with colleagues across different functions and shift patterns. You will remain calm and professional under pressure, work collaboratively and demonstrate resilience, respect and a commitment to achieving high-quality results safely
