Who we are…

 

Agratas is a wholly owned subsidiary of Tata Sons. We will design, develop and manufacture high-quality, high-performance, sustainable batteries for the mobility and energy sectors.

The Global Manufacturing Engineer (GME) team is a dynamic group working across a range of areas such as electrode, cell assembly, FA&T (formation, ageing and testing), control and automation, manufacturing systems, digital manufacturing and logistics engineering. Being a relatively new team, you’ll play a critical part in creating processes and help in building large-scale logistics facilities from the ground up.

    • Strong background in automated mechanical assembly systems, including high-speed, high volume manufacturing environments  
    • Experience in process development validation and industrialisation of welding and assembly technologies. 
    • Hands-on experience with equipment suppliers and system integrators, including specification, design reviews and acceptance 
    • Ability to define and manage process KPIs (OEE, yield, cycle time, scrap) and drive continuous improvement activities. 
    • Proven ability to manage multiple complex workstreams in a fast-paced project environment 
    • Experience and working knowledge of Health and Safety Audits and ergonomics including risk assessments. 

What you’ll get…

 

As a new company, our reward scheme is constantly evolving. We continue to review the market to deliver a competitive benefits package, which currently includes private healthcare, car allowance, company bonus, enhanced parental leave policy and a cash allowance to boost your benefits. We are a flexible business that is committed to promoting work-life balance, partnering with Yulife to provide our team members with total wellbeing support.

 

You’ll work in a rapidly scaling-up environment as a subsidiary of the multinational corporation, Tata Sons, to help build the UK’s biggest battery manufacturing facility and make your mark in a new organisation.
