Quality Manager - Tier1 Construction Firm. (UK-Wide-Travel) in Willenhall

My prestigious client, a Tier 1 Construction firm, is looking to bring in a proven Quality Manager to join them in a critical role taking the reins on quality management across a broad region with an ambitious portfolio of work. I’m looking for someone at the top of their game who will be the face of quality management across a range of high-profile projects across the UK, ensuring that the highest standards of quality management are diligently embedded across all regional projects and offices.

This role covers a very large region and is geographically spread, meaning your role will sometimes take you across the country from Birmingham to Surrey. Therefore, it is absolutely key that you are prepared to both travel and lodge on a weekly basis as part of your remit. You will be entitled to a healthy car allowance (or car) alongside fully-expensed business mileage and out of town allowance.

As a business, they’re an incredibly well-regarded company with a superb reputation within the industry. With a huge amount of multi-million £ projects happening and on the horizon alongside tremendous year-on-year growth, they’re looking to ramp up a central function with the addition of a Quality Manager to ensure only the highest standards of quality management are being both achieved and maintained.

This is a key leadership role within the business, spanning the full project life cycle – before, during, and after construction – with a focus on compliance, continuous improvement, and knowledge sharing. You’ll also be a systems guru and comfortably know how to operate the applications and systems used within quality management. As the face of Quality Assurance, you will be at the top of your game and come from a proven construction background. You will be switched-on, polished, and extremely professional in your approach. You’ll have to be comfortable chairing meetings and presenting to the board when needed. I am looking for a do-er – someone who can essentially get stuff done and in the right way.

Key Responsibilities:

• Supporting projects with quality systems, inspections, and compliance checks to meet legal, contractual, and manufacturer requirements.
• Driving best practice by ensuring teams use the correct processes, systems, and tools, while also providing training, guidance, and technical support.
• Monitoring performance through on-site inspections, audits, NCR (non-conformance report) analysis, and defect investigations, ensuring issues are addressed and lessons are embedded.
• Developing improvements to management systems, procedures, and inspection processes, working with project teams and the supply chain to raise standards.
• Reporting and assurance by producing monthly quality reports for Regional Directors and summary updates for the main Board.

The role is pivotal in maintaining compliance with ISO standards, supporting project teams in quality delivery, and championing a culture of continuous improvement across the region. This is your chance to join a business at the forefront of their sector where you can take the reins on quality management across a number of high-profile, multi-million £ construction projects and represent a highly-regarded organisation within their sector. This is a business that truly looks after its people, renowned for it, and this is reflected through their outstanding retention across the organisation. It couldn’t be a busier or more exciting time to join them.
