Purpose

To grow our people and build something they're proud to be part of.

Vision

To become the UK's most admired employee-owned engineering business, where the best people in our industry choose to build their careers.

Mission

To empower our customers with intelligent, reliable measurement solutions, delivered by people who care.

The teams

Where you could fit

Nine teams, one job list. Some of us are in overalls, some of us are on the phone. Everybody is working on the same order.

A week at MWS

What the work actually looks like

On the tools

Workshop, fabrication bay and customer sites across the UK.

  • Build and assemble weighing equipment
  • Wire, test and fault-find control panels
  • Work to tolerance from drawings and CAD
  • Machining, fabrication and welding
  • Install and calibrate on customer sites
  • Prove accuracy against traceable test weights

In the office

Commercial, technical and support teams at our head office.

  • Specify and quote solutions for customers
  • Plan jobs, parts and engineer schedules
  • Look after customers on the phone and by email
  • Keep certification and compliance in order
  • Run finance, payroll and reporting
  • Tell the MWS story through marketing

No two weeks look the same, whichever side of the door you're on.

Growing people

However you join us, you won't stay where you started.

Apprenticeships

Earn while you learn. Our apprentices combine hands-on work at MWS with classroom learning through one of our training providers, working towards a recognised qualification — no previous experience needed.

Training & mentoring

Whatever your role, you'll sit next to people who are happy to share what they know. Formal training where you need it, and someone to ask when you don't.

Moving sideways, not just up

People here have moved from the workshop into technical roles, and from support roles into the commercial teams. If you want to try a different part of the business, say so.

A stake in the outcome

We're on the path to full employee ownership by 2031.
