Job Requirements

At Quest Global, it’s not just what we do but how and why we do it that makes us different. With over 25 years as an engineering services provider, we believe in the power of doing things differently to make the impossible possible. Our people are driven by the desire to make the world a better place—to make a positive difference that contributes to a brighter future. We bring together technologies and industries, alongside the contributions of diverse individuals who are empowered by an intentional workplace culture, to solve problems better and faster.

Graduate Engineering Operations Leader (Flow Line Leadership Program)

Role Purpose

The Graduate Engineering Operations Leader is a structured development role designed to prepare high-potential graduates for a future position as an Engineering Flow Line Leader within the Engineering Non-Conformance team.

Working alongside experienced engineering leaders and subject matter experts, you will develop the technical, operational and leadership skills required to manage the end-to-end engineering workflow supporting repair development, non-conformance resolution, design changes and engineering approvals for aero-engine components.

Recommend improvements to reduce lead time and improve customer value

Learn to facilitate cross-functional meetings
Support problem-solving workshops
Coach others as experience develops

Customer Focus

Understand customer priorities and contractual commitments
Support delivery against Quality, Cost and Delivery KPIs
Help coordinate urgent customer requirements
Build trusted relationships with internal and external stakeholders

Development Program

Over approximately 2–3 years you will complete a structured development pathway including:

Year 1 – Learn

Engineering process understanding
Lean Foundation
Engineering workflow coordination

Year 3 – Lead

Full ownership of an engineering flowline
Operational decision making
Capacity planning
KPI ownership
Customer interface
Leadership of coordinators
Readiness for appointment as Flowline Leader

What We’re Looking For

Essential

Degree (2:1 or above preferred) in Business Management, Operations Management, Industrial Engineering, Supply Chain, Project Management or similar discipline
Excellent communication skills
Strong analytical thinking
Ability to organise competing priorities
Curiosity and willingness to learn
Positive attitude towards continuous improvement
Strong interpersonal skills
Ability to influence without authority
High level of personal accountability

Desirable

Placement or internship experience

Success Looks Like

Following successful completion of the program you will be able to:

Build trusted customer relationships
Coach and develop others
Manage operational risk and delivery performance

We are known for our extraordinary people who make the impossible possible every day. Questians are driven by hunger, humility, and aspiration. We believe that our company culture is the key to our ability to make a true difference in every industry we reach. Our teams regularly invest time and dedicated effort into internal culture work, ensuring that all voices are heard.

We wholeheartedly believe in the diversity of thought that comes with fostering a culture rooted in respect, where everyone belongs, is valued, and feels inspired to share their ideas. We know embracing our unique differences makes us better, and that solving the worlds hardest engineering problems requires diverse ideas, perspectives, and backgrounds. We shine the brightest when we tap into the many dimensions that thrive across over 21,000 difference-makers in our workplace.
