Job Description

Aerospace companies that actually see their Quality function as a key part of the business are fewer and further apart than I'd always imagined (scary when you think about it, but let's not go there).

This role is with one of the few I've seen over the years who can really demonstrate their commitment to getting things right...

Not only that, but they're big on giving training and development opportunities to people who really want to get on. That's one of a few reasons they tend not to lose many people.

There has been some movement in the team recently though after someone being promoted, which has left behind an opportunity for you to join the team as a Quality Engineer.

You'll focus on the operational aspects of the quality function to start with. That'll mean leading and managing the PPAP documentation and producing FAIRs to validate product conformity with engineering drawings and customer requirements. Clearly that'll mean you're likely to be the "boots on the ground" for the team, whilst others focus on the "systems" heavy side of things.

The company's based in Altham and is a Tier 2 supplier to the aerospace and defence industries. Salary wise, you're probably looking at something around £40k - £45k, which will grow as your time and contribution to the business does.

If there's a chance you might like to hear some more let's have a chat.

Don't worry if you don't have an updated CV ready to go either. Let’s have a chat first and take it from there....
