About the Role

Are you a meticulous Quality Inspector looking to take the next step in your engineering career?

We are a well-established, industry-leading UK manufacturer of precision components. We are seeking a dedicated Quality Inspector to join our busy quality department.

If you have a strong background in mechanical inspection using traditional measuring equipment, we want to hear from you. While previous CMM (Coordinate Measuring Machine) experience is a bonus, it is not essential—full training on our CMM equipment will be provided for the right candidate!

  • Read and accurately interpret engineering drawings, technical specifications, and geometric tolerances (GD&T).

  • Identify, document, and quarantine non-conforming parts, raising Non-Conformance Reports (NCRs) when necessary.

  • Assist in maintaining quality documentation and batch traceability records.

  • Learn and operate CMM equipment (training provided).

What We Are Looking For

  • Experience: Proven track record in a mechanical inspection or quality control role within a manufacturing or precision engineering environment.

  • Technical Skills: Confident reading engineering drawings and using standard manual measuring equipment.

  • Detail-Oriented: A sharp eye for detail and a commitment to high standards.

  • Mindset: A proactive team player eager to learn new skills and software, including CMM operation.

What We Offer

  • Comprehensive CMM Training: Upskill your technical repertoire with hands-on training on our coordinate measuring machines.

  • Stability: Join a secure, long-standing manufacturing business with a strong reputation.

  • Competitive Package: Attractive salary, standard pension scheme, and generous holiday allowance.

  • Work-Life Balance: Standard day-shift hours with potential for overtime.
