About the Job

Requirements

  • A bachelor's degree in Engineering, Quality, Manufacturing, Industrial Technology, or a related technical field is required; a relevant technical diploma combined with substantial applicable experience may be considered.
  • Relevant experience in Quality Engineering, Quality Control, Manufacturing Quality, or a production environment is required; industrial manufacturing experience is preferred.
  • Practical experience managing nonconformities, containment, root-cause analysis, and corrective actions is required.
  • Ability to communicate effectively in the local manufacturing environment is required.
  • Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings, tolerances, and technical specifications.
  • Knowledge of dimensional inspection techniques and appropriate measurement equipment.
  • Knowledge of ISO 9001 quality-management principles, control plans, and inspection procedures.
  • Knowledge of root-cause and corrective-action methods such as 5 Why, Ishikawa, and structured problem solving.
  • Knowledge of basic statistical process control, quality metrics, and trend analysis.
  • Ability to use Microsoft Office and relevant quality/nonconformance reporting systems.
  • Visible, hands-on shop-floor presence and sound judgement.
  • Attention to detail combined with analytical, risk-based thinking.
  • Constructive challenge, clear communication, and effective cross-functional collaboration.
  • Ownership, urgency, and disciplined follow-through.
  • Continuous-improvement mindset and focus on sustainable solutions.

Responsibilities

  • Spend approximately 70% of working time in production areas, with the balance dedicated to analysis, reporting, investigations, and corrective-action follow-up.
  • Provide operational quality oversight for an assigned plant while collaborating across the wider three-plant manufacturing organisation.
  • Operate primarily on a daytime schedule while recognising that manufacturing activity continues across shifts; prioritise risk-based coverage and effective handovers.
  • Own timely detection, escalation, and containment of internal product and process nonconformities; lead or coordinate root-cause investigations within the agreed quality governance model.
  • Perform in-process visual and dimensional inspections of products, components, and assemblies throughout manufacturing operations.
  • Verify compliance with engineering drawings, technical specifications, work instructions, inspection criteria, and control plans.
  • Execute planned inspections on critical orders, products, projects, or manufacturing processes and conduct risk-based shop-floor spot checks.
  • Document findings clearly, communicate issues to the relevant functions, and follow through on agreed actions and closure dates.
  • Detect, record, and report nonconformities; ensure timely identification, segregation, and containment of affected materials and products.
  • Lead or coordinate root-cause analysis for internal manufacturing issues, involving Production, Process Engineering, and other specialists as needed.
  • Support definition and implementation of corrective and preventive actions and verify their effectiveness.
  • Analyse recurring defects, scrap, rework, nonconformity, and complaint data to identify trends, process weaknesses, and improvement priorities.
  • Contribute to the development and continuous improvement of control plans, inspection methods, work instructions, and quality standards.
  • Participate in manufacturing-quality and continuous-improvement initiatives designed to reduce defects, variability, and customer risk.

Desired Qualifications

  • Working English is preferred.
  • Industrial manufacturing experience is preferred.
