You will provide day-to-day leadership within the quality function, supporting the inspection team and acting as an important link between Quality, Production, Engineering and other departments.

Support compliance with ISO 9001 & ISO14001 and customer-specific quality requirements.
Assist with internal, external and customer audits.
Promote a culture where quality is everyone's responsibility.
Apply Lean Six Sigma principles to identify and eliminate sources of variation, waste and defects within manufacturing processes.
Work with Production and Engineering to improve Right First Time (RFT) performance and reduce scrap, rework, defects and customer complaints.
Train and mentor inspectors and production personnel in quality requirements, inspection methods and the correct use of measuring equipment.
Monitor performance and identify training and development requirements.
Calibration & Inspection Equipment
Ensure any equipment found to be out of calibration is appropriately quarantined and affected product is assessed.

Experience applying structured problem-solving techniques to identify root causes and implement sustainable corrective actions.
The ability to read and interpret engineering drawings and technical specifications.
Experience using precision measuring equipment such as verniers, micrometers, gauges and other inspection equipment.
Experience with non-conformance management, Root Cause Analysis and corrective/preventive actions.
Good understanding of ISO 9001 and Quality Management Systems.
