Are you a hands-on Quality Manager ready to take real ownership of Quality within a growing Aerospace precision manufacturing business?

Do you want the autonomy to lead your own team, stay close to the shop floor, and make decisions on complex, tight-tolerance components rather than managing Quality from a distance?

This is an opportunity to join a well-established precision manufacturer with 40+ years of experience, supporting Aerospace and Medical customers from engineering and design through to production and reverse engineering. The work is varied, covering complex CNC machining, castings, and other high-spec components where technical Quality knowledge matters.

With major audits approaching, including AS9100 and NADCAP for welding, you'll have a clear opportunity to make an immediate impact - leading audit readiness, driving improvements, and taking the Quality function into its next phase.

The Role:

• Lead a close-knit Quality team and take full ownership of the department
• Oversee Inspection, CMM, and Calibration across a busy precision machine shop
• Solve technical Quality challenges across complex, tight-tolerance Aerospace components
• Lead audit readiness and drive improvements across the Quality function

The Person:

• Proven Quality leadership experience within Aerospace precision machining
• Strong AS9100 QMS ownership and audit experience
• Hands-on CMM experience (programming experience beneficial)
• Technically confident with blueprints, GD&T and tight-tolerance manufacturing
