If you’re a detail‑driven engineer who takes pride in doing things right the first time, this Quality Engineer role offers the chance to work on technically challenging projects within a trusted engineering environment. You’ll be joining a team that designs and manufactures high‑integrity electro‑mechanical systems for defence and industrial applications where safety, precision and reliability are everything.

• Reviewing customer and contract requirements to ensure compliance throughout the project lifecycle.

• Preparing and maintaining project quality documentation, from initial planning through to acceptance.
• Leading and supporting First Article Inspections and Factory Acceptance Tests (FATs).
• Carrying out internal and supplier audits to ensure process, procedure, and contract compliance.
• Managing the internal audit schedule and tracking corrective actions.
• Leading root‑cause analysis, 8D problem solving, and continuous improvement activities.
• Supporting lessons learned, reviews, and quality investigations to drive lasting improvement.

• Proven experience in Quality Assurance or Quality Control within an electro‑mechanical or defence‑related engineering environment.
• Strong understanding of engineering drawings, wiring schedules and specifications.
• Experience with auditing and compliance (internal auditor certification preferred).
• Knowledge of 8D, RCA, and continuous improvement methods.
• Confident communicator, highly organised, and able to work independently.
• Excellent attention to detail and a proactive, right‑first‑time approach.
• Recognised qualification in Quality Assurance (C&G 743, IQA A3, Lead Assessor, or equivalent) desirable.
• Eligible for UK Security Clearance (SC).

You’ll be part of a forward‑thinking engineering business where quality is truly valued, not just box‑ticked. The role offers autonomy, variety, and the chance to influence real improvement across design, build, and delivery.
