CNC Programmer

Are you a hands-on CNC Programmer who thrives on turning production drawings into precisely cut wood and steel components? We're looking for a detail-focused, problem-solving technician who can own the programming process from drawing interpretation to machine setup — all within the fast-moving world of custom exhibition stand fabrication. 

This role is perfect for someone who thrives on one-off builds, works well with shop drawings, and brings programming rigour to a creative, design-driven environment. At Expo Centric, every detail matters — and precision starts with you.
