Ready to hit the ground running?
We’re looking for an experienced Quality Engineer who doesn’t need months of training or hand-holding. This is an opportunity to step into a busy manufacturing environment, make an immediate impact and play a key role in a major period of change.
This isn’t a role for someone looking to learn the basics. We need someone who already knows quality inside out, can confidently lead audits, challenge processes, investigate issues and drive improvements from day one.
You’ll be joining a business investing in new equipment, new processes and continuous improvement, making this an excellent opportunity to broaden your experience whilst working on an exciting transformation project.
What you’ll be doing
Leading internal process and system audits
Maintaining and improving the Quality Management System (QMS)
Supporting BRC and customer audit requirements
Investigating customer complaints, non-conformances and supplier issues using root cause analysis
Driving CAPA activities and ensuring corrective actions are effective
Monitoring quality KPIs and identifying improvement opportunities
Working closely with Production, Engineering and Supply Chain teams
Supporting process validation and documentation
Championing continuous improvement across the site
Promoting a strong quality culture throughout the business
What we’re looking for
You’ll already have experience as a Quality Engineer within an FMCG manufacturing environment and be comfortable stepping straight into a fast-paced operation.
Ideally you’ll have experience with:
BRC auditing and retailer standards
Internal auditing
Quality Management Systems (QMS)
CAPA and Root Cause Analysis
5 Whys, FMEA and PDCA problem-solving tools
HACCP
Lean Manufacturing, 5S and Continuous Improvement
Working closely with production teams to improve quality performance
Experience within paper, packaging, personal care or cosmetics manufacturing would be particularly attractive, although other FMCG backgrounds will also be considered.
What’s on offer?
Salary up to £31,000
6-month fixed-term contract
Immediate start available
Opportunity to gain valuable project and change-management experience
Exposure to new equipment, evolving processes and continuous improvement initiatives
Fast interview process with quick decisions
