Are you a skilled CNC Operator looking to level up your career? We're on the hunt for someone ready to step into a CNC Setter role where your technical ability will shape the future of high-precision engineering.You’ll set up CNC lathes or milling machines, ensure perfect first-off parts, and work closely with quality and programming teams to keep production smooth, accurate, and ahead of the curve. This is your chance to expand your skills, grow with a supportive team, and help push the boundaries of what’s possible in precision manufacturing.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Set up CNC machines (lathe or milling) with minimal supervision

  • Perform test runs and first-off inspections using micrometers, verniers, and gauges

  • Fine-tune offsets, feeds, and speeds to meet spec

  • Troubleshoot issues like tool wear, chatter, or alignment

  • Collaborate with programmers and QC to nail accuracy

  • Follow safety and quality standards like it’s second nature

    You’ll need:

  • 2+ years’ experience as a CNC Operator (lathe, milling, or both) for Doosan/Tormach machines

  • Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings and tolerances

  • Confident setting tool offsets and using manual inspection tools

  • Basic G-code know-how and CNC control panel experience (FANUC, etc.)

  • A proactive mindset and a passion to grow into setup and programming

    Even better if you have:

  • Experience setting CNC machines under supervision

  • Exposure to lean manufacturing, 5S, or small-batch/high-precision work

  • Multi-axis or live tooling machine experience

    Why join us?
    At Dexory, we live by four operating principles:
    Performance. Impact. Commitment. One Team.
    From day one, you'll be part of a company that values growth, ambition, and teamwork. You won’t just be doing a job; you’ll be helping redefine logistics through next-generation robotics.

    What’s in it for you?

  • Share options

  • Private Bupa healthcare & 24/7 helpline

  • Life insurance & income protection

  • Enhanced pension: 4% employee (with salary exchange option), 5% employer

  • 25 days holiday

  • Onsite meals & snack heaven

  • Team socials & fun offsites

  • Mental health and wellbeing support

    Ready to take your next big step in CNC precision?
    Apply now and build something that matters.

Where to Advertise Robotics Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Advertising robotics jobs in the UK requires a different approach to most technical hiring. The candidate pool spans mechanical engineers, software developers, controls specialists, computer vision researchers and systems integrators — a multidisciplinary mix that general job boards are poorly equipped to reach. The strongest robotics candidates are often embedded in research groups, defence programmes or advanced manufacturing environments, and move between roles through specialist networks and industry events rather than mainstream platforms. This guide, published by RoboticsJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise robotics roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

New Robotics Employers to Watch in 2026: UK and Global Companies Transforming Automation Careers

Robotics is moving rapidly from factory floors into healthcare, logistics, agriculture, autonomous systems, and consumer products. As automation becomes embedded in everyday life, companies are investing in robots that operate alongside humans, analyse environments in real time, and learn from data. In 2026, demand for robotics engineers, software developers, system integrators, and AI specialists continues to surge. For professionals exploring opportunities on www.RoboticsJobs.co.uk , understanding the employers that are scaling, winning contracts, securing investment, or expanding into the UK market is crucial. This article highlights top robotics employers to watch in 2026, spanning innovative startups, high‑growth scale‑ups, and established global technology leaders with strong UK presence.

How Many Robotics Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Robotics Job?

If you’re pursuing a career in robotics, it can feel like the list of tools you should learn never ends. One job advert asks for ROS, another mentions Gazebo, another wants experience with Python, Linux, C++, RobotStudio, MATLAB/Simulink, perception stacks, control frameworks, real-time OS, vision libraries — and that’s just scratching the surface. With so many frameworks, languages and platforms, it’s no wonder robotics job seekers feel overwhelmed. But here’s the honest truth most recruiters won’t say explicitly: 👉 They don’t hire you because you know every tool — they hire you because you can apply the right tools to solve real robotics problems reliably and explain your reasoning clearly. Tools matter — but only in service of outcomes. So the real question isn’t how many tools you should know, but which tools you should master and why. For most robotics roles, the answer is significantly fewer — and far more focused — than you might assume. This article breaks down what employers really expect, which tools are core, which are role-specific, and how to focus your learning so you look capable, confident, and ready to contribute from day one.
