Job Description
Senior Quality Engineer – Warranty & ISO9001
Warwickshire£45,000 – £55,000Manufacturing / Assembly Environment
We are recruiting for a Senior Quality Engineer on behalf of a well-established engineering manufacturer supplying into the leisure and specialist vehicle sector.
This Senior Quality Engineer role has become available following retirement and offers a genuine opportunity to shape and improve a critical business process.
Unlike traditional automotive Quality Engineer roles, this position places strong emphasis on warranty process ownership, ISO9001 compliance, and structured problem-solving within a mixed mechanical and electronic product environment.
The Role – Senior Quality Engineer
As Senior Quality Engineer, you will:
* Take ownership of the warranty process and drive measurable improvement
* Analyse warranty data and identify root causes
* Quantify financial impact of quality issues
* Present structured reports to UK leadership and Group HQ
* Lead internal audits and support external ISO9001 audits
* Maintain and improve the Quality Management System
* Investigate supplier, internal and customer quality issues
* Support assembly-based manufacturing operations
* Oversee and support a small quality team
This is a hands-on, visible Quality Engineer role requiring strong analytical capability and commercial awareness.
What We’re Looking For
We are seeking a Quality Engineer with:
* Experience in a warranty or aftersales quality environment
* Strong ISO9001 knowledge and audit experience
* Background in manufacturing or assembly
* Root cause analysis skills (8D, Fishbone, Pareto etc.)
* Ability to analyse data and communicate cost impact
* Experience dealing with suppliers and customers
* Strong Excel and reporting skills
Experience with mechanical, hydraulic or electronic products is highly desirable.
What This Role Is NOT
This is not a heavily automotive APQP/PPAP-driven Quality Engineer position.
It is not inspection-heavy or gauge-focused.
This Senior Quality Engineer role is about process control, warranty improvement, structured escalation and measurable quality performance.
Why Apply?
* Salary £45,000 – £55,000 depending on level
* Immediate vacancy
* Opportunity to shape and improve a growing warranty function
* Exposure to both UK leadership and European HQ
* Scope to develop into a Quality Manager role longer term
