Quality Assurance Manager | Furniture | Homewear Brand | £55,000 – £60,000 | Full Remote | UK Based
We are partnering with an international, premium homewear brand to recruit a Quality Assurance Manager for a fully remote UK-based role. This is a high-impact position with full ownership of quality, compliance, and regulatory functions across the business.
It is not for someone who needs close management; you will take the lead in building, shaping, and embedding best‑in‑class QA processes across a growing global operation. Reporting directly to a Product Director, you will play a critical role in protecting brand integrity while enabling product innovation.
The Role
- Define and implement the global quality assurance and compliance strategy across all product categories, with a focus on furniture (essential requirement)
- Take full ownership of QA, regulatory, and supplier compliance processes.
- Build structure, systems, and ways of working from the ground up.
- Ensure all products meet international safety, legal, and regulatory standards.
- Partner closely with Product and Design teams to embed quality into the product lifecycle from concept through to launch.
- Lead supplier compliance, including audits, ethical sourcing standards, and ongoing performance management.
- Establish and manage product testing protocols, inspections, and relationships with global test laboratories
- Drive continuous improvement through data, customer insights, and performance metrics.
- Lead root cause analysis and corrective actions for quality or safety issues.
- Identify and deliver ROI improvements through smarter processes (e.g., re‑sourcing, returns reduction, testing efficiencies).
- Ensure clear documentation of certifications, testing, and audit records across all markets
About You
- Proven QA / Compliance leader with strong experience in furniture or homeware (non-negotiable)
- Demonstrated ability to build and lead QA functions in fast‑paced, international environments
- Strong technical knowledge of materials, manufacturing processes, and global regulatory standards
- Commercially minded, with clear examples of driving cost savings and operational improvements
- Confident, proactive, and comfortable operating autonomously with full ownership
- A broad, strategic thinker who can bring structure without disrupting creative and product teams
- Excellent communicator and collaborator with the ability to influence across departments while working remotely
- Hands‑on when needed, with a pragmatic and solutions‑focused approach
- A team player with high standards, strong integrity, and a commitment to quality and sustainability
