Quality Auditor

Quality Auditor – Precision Machining & Inspection

Location: Near Warwick
Salary: Up to £43,000
Hours: 37.5 per week, core hours 8:30am–3:30pm, early finish Friday (1pm) once hours are completed

We’re recruiting a Quality Auditor to sit on the edge of the shop floor – you won’t be doing day‑to‑day inspection, but you’ll be making sure the people who do inspection and manufacturing are doing it right first time.

You’ll come from a senior component inspection background in low‑volume, precision batch machining, and be strong on GD&T and how complex machined parts should be checked.

Quality Auditor role

• Audit the inspection work and methods of around 20 machinists/inspectors

Check they’re:

• Using the right measuring equipment
• Reading drawings & GD&T correctly
• Following agreed inspection processes
• Own and refine a shop‑floor audit plan based on findings and any quality issues
• Carry out regular reviews of new starters
• Produce simple weekly audit reports and keep a capability matrix up to date
• Support, coach and hold people to account on inspection standards
• Occasionally audit night and weekend shifts (around once per month)

What we’re looking for

• Experienced senior inspector of precision‑machined components in a batch environment
• Fully conversant with engineering drawings and GD&T
• Background in low‑volume precision steels/castings (ideal)
• Confident in product and process auditing
• Strong interpersonal skills – firm but fair, able to challenge and support
• Computer‑literate and comfortable producing clear reports

This suits someone who has inspected precision parts on the shop floor and now wants to step into a more audit‑focused, oversight role while still being close to manufacturing.
