Job Description:

Quality Inspector (CMM Bias)

Medical Device Precision Engineering

Rotherham | On-site | Permanent – Up to £35,000 p/a

We’re supporting a growing precision engineering manufacturer in Rotherham that produces high-quality instruments and components for global customers. Due to continued growth, they’re looking to add a hands-on Quality Inspector with strong CMM capability to their on-site quality team.

This is a practical, shop-floor role suited to someone who enjoys working closely with production and engineering, programming CMMs, and taking real ownership of inspection quality.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Programming and operating CMMs
  • Creating pre-programmed CMM routines ahead of production
  • Carrying out first-off, in-process, and final inspections
  • Performing manual inspection using micrometers, verniers, height gauges, bore gauges, etc.
  • Interpreting complex engineering drawings, GD&T, and CAD data
  • Producing clear inspection reports and quality records
  • Supporting NCRs, root cause analysis, and CAPA
  • Working closely with production, engineering, and quality colleagues
  • Contributing to continuous improvement and inspection efficiency

What they’re looking for:

  • Proven experience as a Quality Inspector / CMM Programmer
  • Working knowledge of CMM best practice
  • Confident reading and applying GD&T
  • A proactive, team-oriented mindset with a strong attention to detail

Why this role?

  • Clean, modern precision engineering environment
  • Stable, growing business with long-term career prospects
  • Opportunity to influence inspection processes and standards, not just “measure and move on”

If you’re a hands-on Quality Inspector who enjoys CMM programming and working close to production, this is a role where your expertise will genuinely be valued.
