- Lead root cause analysis and corrective/preventive action (CAPA) for non-conformities within your area
- Support the Quality function head in ISO 9001:2015 QMS documentation, internal audits, and external audit preparation
- Maintain calibration records and inspection documentation for your team's scope of work
- Drive continuous improvement initiatives (5S, Kaizen, Lean) within the team
- Represent quality on defence programmes in client and auditor interactions, escalating to the Quality function head as needed
- Coordinate with production, design, and engineering teams to resolve quality issues and drive compliance
- Mentor and develop Quality Inspectors, building technical capability across the team
Requirements

- Strong hands-on experience in structural, tank & pressure vessel fabrication inspection
- Strong knowledge of welding and NDT — Dye Penetrant Testing, Radiography Testing, Ultrasonic Testing — and EPC testing requirements
- Experience in CNC & VMC component inspection with the ability to read and interpret complex 2D/3D engineering drawings
- Working knowledge of ISO 9001:2015 QMS, with hands-on internal/external audit experience
- Strong team leadership, documentation, and stakeholder management skills
- Proficiency in MS Office; experience with ERP or quality software is an advantage
