Quality Inspector (CMM Bias)
Medical Device Precision Engineering
Leeds | On-site | Permanent
We’re supporting a growing medical device precision engineering manufacturer in Leeds that produces high-quality orthopaedic instruments and components for global customers. Due to continued growth, they’re looking to add a hands-on Quality Inspector with strong CMM capability to their on-site quality team.
This is a practical, shop-floor role suited to someone who enjoys working closely with production and engineering, programming CMMs, and taking real ownership of inspection quality.
What you’ll be doing:
* Programming and operating Mitutoyo CMMs using MCOSMOS (training on MICAT available)
* Creating pre-programmed CMM routines ahead of production
* Carrying out first-off, in-process, and final inspections
* Performing manual inspection using micrometers, verniers, height gauges, bore gauges, etc.
* Interpreting complex engineering drawings, GD&T, and CAD data
* Producing clear inspection reports and quality records
* Supporting NCRs, root cause analysis, and CAPA
* Working closely with production, engineering, and quality colleagues
* Contributing to continuous improvement and inspection efficiency
What they’re looking for:
* Proven experience as a Quality Inspector / CMM Programmer
* Strong working knowledge of MCOSMOS and CMM best practice
* Confident reading and applying GD&T
* Background in medical devices, precision engineering, aerospace, or other regulated industries
* Experience working within ISO 13485 / ISO 9001 quality systems
* A proactive, team-oriented mindset with a strong attention to detail
Why this role?
* Clean, modern precision engineering environment
* High-quality medical device work with real regulatory importance
* Stable, growing business with long-term career prospects
* Opportunity to influence inspection processes and standards, not just “measure and move on”
If you’re a hands-on Quality Inspector who enjoys CMM programming and working close to production, this is a role where your expertise will genuinely be valued.
