- Develop inspection plans and quality control methodologies aligned with customer and regulatory requirements.
- Support supplier quality activities and drive quality improvements throughout the supply chain.
- Provide quality leadership during product transfers and international manufacturing projects.
- Develop future quality resource plans and play a key role in building and leading a quality team.
What We're Looking For

- Strong understanding of First Article Inspection Reports (FAIRs), AS9102 and aerospace documentation requirements.
- Experience leading internal, customer and external certification audits.
- Demonstrable expertise in root cause analysis, problem solving and continuous improvement methodologies.
- Ability to influence stakeholders across all levels of the business and drive positive quality culture.
Desirable Experience
- Composite manufacturing or advanced materials experience.
- Knowledge of aerospace defence programmes and customer approval processes.
- Experience of supplier quality management.
- Exposure to advanced metrology, CMMs or 3D scanning technologies.
- Previous experience building or developing a quality function or team.
