You will have an engineering qualification or relevant experience in a manufacturing environment, with a good understanding of quality engineering principles. You will be confident reading engineering drawings, investigating quality issues and putting corrective actions in place.

Travel is typically required about once every three weeks to visit UK-based suppliers.
You will also contribute to inspection planning, product and process changes, internal quality audits and the development of quality standards. The role involves using structured problem-solving techniques and quality tools to identify root causes, implement effective solutions and prevent repeat issues. You will also have the opportunity to support and coach colleagues in quality methods and continuous improvement practices.
