Dorchester (DT5 2NN) · Permanent
That's the job in one line. You're the checkpoint between a supplier's delivery and a UK defence programme, and you've got the final say.
I'm recruiting for a specialist UK defence electronics business. They're adding a QC Inspector to a tight quality team. It's small enough that your work gets noticed, and serious enough that it matters.
What you'll be doing
- Inspecting incoming goods, components and materials against drawings, specs and purchase orders
- Carrying out stage and final inspection on PCBAs, electronic assemblies and sub-assemblies
- Running visual and dimensional checks with verniers, micrometers, gauges and electronic test kit
- Checking certs, paperwork and traceability so nothing slips through undocumented
- Raising non-conformances and working with suppliers, Engineering and Quality to fix root causes
- Keeping inspection records accurate and systems up to date
- Pitching in on stores, stock control and continuous improvement when needed
- Goods-in and production inspection experience in a manufacturing environment
- Defence and electronics experience
- Confidence reading engineering drawings, wiring diagrams and technical documentation
- Hands-on use of mechanical and electronic measuring equipment
- A methodical, detail-obsessed approach and solid record-keeping
- Good communication skills and an easy way of working across teams
- IPC-A-610 and/or IPC-A-620 trained
- SC clearance already in place
- Real ownership in a small quality team, not a cog in a 40-person department
- Work on defence electronics that actually ships and actually matters
- SC clearance sponsored if you don't already hold it
