The Role
The Product Assurance Manager will take ownership of the PA function across a portfolio of concurrent projects, ensuring all deliverables meet contractual, regulatory, and internal quality standards. Day-to-day responsibilities include chairing PA boards and gate reviews, managing the non-conformance process end-to-end, overseeing project configuration activities, and acting as the primary PA interface with customer teams. The Product Assurance Manager will also review and observe manufacturing, assembly, integration, and test activities on-site, and advise project teams on adherence to both the PA plan and broader quality management processes.
Beyond direct project delivery, this role contributes to supplier audits, supports bids with PA input, drives continuous improvement of the quality management system, and delivers training on assurance methods where needed.

The company delivers technically demanding programmes and fosters a collaborative, quality-driven culture where skilled professionals have genuine scope to influence both their technical work and the wider organisation.

A degree or HNC in a relevant discipline, alongside practical experience in Product or Quality Assurance within a highly regulated sector such as space, aerospace, or a comparable industry
Solid working knowledge of ECSS or equivalent standards, combined with an understanding of lean commercial PA and QA approaches, and familiarity with mechanical, thermal, and radiation-tolerant material properties
Strong analytical and problem-solving capability, including root cause analysis, with the ability to communicate technical information clearly and manage multiple project demands simultaneously
