• Support goods inward inspection and verify incoming components
• Identify, log, and escalate non-conformances in line with company procedures
• Work closely with production and quality engineering to resolve issues and prevent recurrence
• Contribute to root cause analysis and continuous improvement activity
• Maintain strict adherence to Quality, HSE, and compliance standards

What You’ll Bring

We’re looking for someone who combines technical capability with a proactive, quality-first mindset.

• Strong experience in precision inspection within a manufacturing environment
• Confident using a range of inspection tools, gauges, and measuring equipment, including CMM
• Ability to read and interpret complex engineering drawings (metric & imperial)
