Quality Engineer

Job description

Quality Engineer

• Fantastic and unique opportunity for an experienced Quality Engineer or Quality Inspector who enjoys hands on activities.

• Would suit someone from a precision engineering or light fabrication background. 

• Working within growing business with an excellent reputation for retaining their staff.

We are working in partnership with an engineering business with a strong reputation within their market. As a Quality Engineer, you will primarily be responsible for ensuring day to day quality is maintained throughout the different manufacturing processes. This is a largely hands-on/practical quality driven role which involves inspection of parts, implementing new ideas to minimise future defects, and addressing quality earlier on into the process to help drive down costs/waste. There is less of an emphasis in terms of managing the QMS and more about someone being operationally driven.

Preferably you will come from a precision engineering or fabrication background, but we can possibly consider a wider manufacturing background. 

Salary: c£40,000 to £43,000 per annum as a guide. 32 days holiday including banks which rises by an additional day each year up to 36 days. Additional bonuses paid. Health and well being cover.

The Quality Engineer job would suit:

• An experienced Quality Engineer or Quality Inspector with a practical mindset when it comes to reviewing and performing quality processes within manufacturing. 

• Comfortable using height gauges, verniers, and other metrology equipment.

• Preferably from a CNC / Fabrication background. 

• Happy working within a small team and culturally aligned to help support across a range of wider tasks where required. 

• Confident to drive improvements and changes by working with the manufacturing team. 

The Quality Engineer job’s working environment, opportunities and rewards: 

• The company has a proven track record of developing their staff which is reflected in the length of tenure throughout the team. 

• A core culture that focuses on employees and values them as individuals, not just a number. 

• Chance to implement your own ideas and drive real positive changes within an engineering environment. 

The Quality Engineer job will involve:

• Carry out and oversee hands-on quality inspections of components, fabrications, assemblies and finished products throughout the manufacturing process.

• Verify that products conform to engineering drawings, specifications, tolerances, inspection plans and customer requirements.

• Perform first-off, in-process and final inspections, as required.

• Review existing quality control procedures, inspection methods and manufacturing processes to identify opportunities for improvement.

• Work with production and engineering teams to improve process capability, consistency and overall product quality.
