Other responsibilities expected of this role are:

* Ownership and maintenance of departmental procedures, including Digital Product Definition.
* Management of departmental priorities and workload.
* Liaison with internal customers/suppliers (Manufacturing/Planning departments) to ensure optimum workflows and delivery of design data.

This role would suit an individual who is already in a similar role, or one with a good knowledge of multiple CAD tools (CATIA, AutoCAD Mechanical, Mentor Graphics) in complex environments looking to progress their career. The ideal candidate would possess basic programming skills such as VBA or Java Scripting to enhance functionality through the programmable application interfaces.

A level of confidence and assertiveness is required in order to juggle a number of high priority tasks with pressing deadlines, and to negotiate with stakeholders at different levels of the organisation.
