Quality & Compliance Engineer - Hybrid
Location: Bristol
Working Model: Hybrid - 3 days onsite per week

The Opportunity
We're looking for a Quality & Compliance Engineer with a strong background in regulated environments to join our growing team in Bristol. This is a non-product, process-focused role-ideal for someone who thrives on improving systems, driving compliance, and coordinating cross-functional quality efforts.
If you're someone who understands ISO 9001/9100, is confident navigating audits and management reviews, and enjoys refining business processes (not manufacturing!), we'd love to hear from you.
Your Core Responsibilities
1. Quality Management Systems (QMS):
2. Develop, implement, and maintain an Integrated Management System that supports business continuity and regulatory compliance.
3. Audit Leadership:
4. Conduct and manage internal and external audits, including coordination with certification bodies (e.g., BSI), and close out non-conformities.
5. Process Improvement:
6. Drive process improvement initiatives across departments using structured problem-solving tools. Publish and manage process documentation through SharePoint.
7. Regulatory Compliance:
8. Maintain up-to-date knowledge of ISO 9001/9100 and other standards, ensuring the organisation adapts to changes and remains compliant.
9. Stakeholder Facilitation:
10. Work across teams to facilitate quality discussions, coordinate inputs, and support process ownership-without directly owning the processes.
11. Documentation & Policy Management:
12. Ensure high-quality, accessible documentation of company policies and processes across the fulfilment lifecycle.
What You'll Bring
13. Proven experience in quality engineering within a regulated industry
14. Knowledge of ISO 9001 and other relevant standards
15. Solid experience with auditing, non-conformance management, and quality systems
16. Exceptional organisation and documentation skills
17. Ability to facilitate quality initiatives across diverse functions
18. A confident, people-oriented approach-comfortable working with stakeholders at all levels
19. Willingness to learn and apply multiple standards
20. Experience with SharePoint, or similar document control systems is a bonus
Why Join Us?
21. Hybrid working - balance your time between home and our Bristol office
22. Supportive, cross-functional team culture
23. One-stage, on-site interview process - meet the team from day one
24. Real impact - influence how quality and compliance are shaped across the business
