I'm currently working with a world-leading engineering and motorsport manufacturer, renowned for delivering cutting-edge, high-performance solutions across the automotive and racing sectors. This is a fantastic opportunity to join a business operating at the highest level of precision engineering-where innovation, quality, and speed drive everything they do.

  • Maintain accurate records of inspection activities, including the release, quarantine, or rejection of components.

  • Collaborate with stores, logistics, and production teams to ensure timely part release and issue resolution.

  • Support a culture of continuous improvement through Kaizen methodologies.

What You'll Need:

  • Previous experience in a quality control role, ideally in a mechanical or manufacturing environment.

  • Competence with inspection tools and familiarity with CMM or CAD-based equipment (Faro Arm experience desirable).

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities.

  • A proactive mindset with a keen eye for detail and a commitment to delivering high-quality results.

  • A team-focused approach with strong communication skills and flexibility to meet production demands.
