Mechanical Industrial & Summer Placements

Our mechanical placements are involved in the mechanical design of Renishaw's future products and the maintenance of current products.

Mechanical Industrial Placement

A Mechanical Industrial Placement at Renishaw will involve working on real engineering projects that can involve elements of; component design and modelling, process design, dynamic analysis, design for manufacture, mechanisms and control, and experimental design verification. Using the latest software applications, in-house development processes, technologies and practical skills can give a real insight into engineering business and how Renishaw develops and manufactures innovative new products.

Applications are encouraged from bright, highly motivated individuals who are excited by engineering. Renishaw engineers tend to be innovative, organised and passionate about their work both as an individual and as a team member and we are looking for people with similar skills and passion. Could this be you? Be part of an exciting company with a broad portfolio of innovative products and see where engineering can take you.
