Ensuring compliance with Quality, Health & Safety, and Environmental standards.
Promoting safe working practices, including within controlled or cleanroom environments.

You'll ideally have:

A degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Plastics, Industrial, Chemical) or a related discipline.
Strong experience in a quality or manufacturing environment, ideally within plastics.
Strong experience working with ISO 9001 Quality Management Systems.
In-depth knowledge of quality tools including FMEA, Control Plans, SPC, and MSA.
Experience using structured problem-solving techniques such as 8D and 5 Whys.
