Your Role

As a Quality Controller, you will play a critical role in ensuring that our products, processes, and documentation meet the highest standards of quality, safety, and compliance.

Key responsibilities include:

• Conducting visual and dimensional inspections using appropriate inspection equipment
• Validating and recording inspection operations in line with procedures and technical documentation
• Reviewing engineering drawings, specifications, and quality documentation to verify conformity
• Identifying, documenting, and containing non-conforming products
• Raising, recording, and closing Quality Notifications (QNs) in accordance with company procedures
• Completing and validating delivery and release documentation as required
• Supporting QRQC reviews through accurate reporting of inspection and quality data
• Participating in quality improvement and QN eradication projects
• Verifying rework and repair activities to ensure compliance with approved standards
• Promoting and championing a proactive quality culture across the organisation

But what else? (benefits, specificities, etc.)

Get Involved
