Description
Help Us Make Advanced Materials… Well, Even More Advanced
Morgan Advanced Materials has been around since 1856, which means we’ve had a bit of practice. What started in the UK is now a global business with more than 70 sites across 18 countries. We use ceramics and carbon materials to solve problems that most people don’t even realise exist — and we do it for customers in industries where failure really isn’t an option.
The Stourport site is part of our Technical Ceramics business. Think high‑performance, high‑precision components that end up in some of the most demanding applications in the world. The work matters, and so does doing it well.
The Role
You’ll be the person who helps us make things better — literally. Day to day, you’ll work alongside production teams to improve processes, boost productivity, and keep quality exactly where it needs to be. You’ll also be the go‑to problem‑solver when something isn’t behaving as it should.
Some days you’ll be hands-on on the shop floor; other days you’ll be digging into data or working with colleagues on engineering improvements. If you enjoy variety, this role has plenty.

- Exposure to automation or process equipment upgrades
A competitive salary, a stable permanent role, and the chance to work in a business that genuinely makes things that matter. You’ll join a supportive engineering team, have opportunities to develop your skills, and work for a company that’s been innovating for more than 165 years… and lived to tell the tale.
