• Entering quality-control testing data and maintaining clear conformance records.
• Supporting inspection and quality checks throughout the production process.
• Liaising with customers when quality documentation or customer files require updating.
• Maintaining accurate compliance documentation and organised quality records.
• Managing metrology equipment records and supporting equipment tracking.
• Completing and reviewing employee competency logs.
• Supporting internal audits and monitoring follow-up actions.
• Working with Production and Operations to investigate and resolve quality issues.
• Helping to ensure non-conforming parts are identified, recorded and managed correctly.

What we’re looking for

• Experience within a quality, production, manufacturing or operations environment.
• Awareness of ISO 9001, ISO 14001 or another Quality Management System would be advantageous, although training can be provided.
• Strong attention to detail and confidence working with records, spreadsheets and technical documentation.
• An organised and methodical approach to investigating and documenting non-conformance issues.
• The ability to manage multiple priorities within a busy production environment.
• Clear written and verbal communication skills.
• Confidence working with Production, Operations and customers.
• A proactive attitude and willingness to develop technical quality and compliance knowledge.
• The ability to work independently and manage routine responsibilities without close supervision.

Why apply?

• Join a growing and well-established additive manufacturing business.
• Build specialist experience within an innovative technical sector.
• Develop your knowledge of ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and manufacturing quality systems.
• Work closely with production and operational teams on real quality challenges.
• Access clear salary progression linked to skills, experience and performance.
