Our purpose - Transforming Tomorrow Together
We are a global engineering technology group. We create high precision technology for metrology and healthcare. We design and develop systems and solutions for complete precision, control and reliability.
We are also a world leader in additive manufacturing (also known as metal 3D printing). We design and produce compact machines that ‘print' parts from metal powder. From transport to agriculture, electronics and healthcare, our breakthrough technology transforms product performance.
We have 67 key locations in 36 countries with 5,000+ employees worldwide. Over 3,000 people work for us in the UK. This is where we do much of our research and development and manufacturing.
Equality, Diversity and Inclusion
We recognise that increasing diversity in our company will enable us to be a responsible and productive business that is powered by talented people with different backgrounds and perspectives. This is central to our company strategy to provide a great place for our people to work, grow and contribute.
Our approach to corporate responsibility
Sustainability is an integral part of our purpose to transform tomorrow together. It is our ambition to become a sustainability leader, working in partnership with our customers, suppliers and local communities to create positive change. In November 2021, we committed to a Net Zero target of 2050, at the latest. We realise that becoming a sustainable business requires a lot more than achieving Net Zero emissions.
Corporate Responsibility
Whichever early careers pathway you choose to follow, you will become part of a highly skilled, multi-disciplinary team working closely to design, develop, deliver and support the best outcomes for our customers.
By joining one of our early careers programmes you will also be able to participate in activities and events run and become a Renishaw STEM Ambassador.
You will also be entitled to a wide range of employee benefits.
