Are you an experienced Lead Inspector ready to take on a leadership role? Would you like the opportunity to shape a high-performing team in a global manufacturing organisation?
This is a hands-on leadership role at a leading manufacturing site in Lincolnshire, where you'll supervise and support a team of 6–8 inspectors. With a strong reputation for high-precision components and global operations, the business is looking for a confident and skilled Lead Inspector to join the team and shape the department!
What You’ll Be Doing as a Lead Inspector:
* Leading Quality Control function to establish world-class inspection and metrology processes
* Inspection of components through CMM or manual methods
* Setting and adjusting CMM programs
* Ensuring all quality documents are maintained and completed accurately
* Liaising with other departments on quality related matters for resolution
* Leading and developing a team, implementing training plans, and supporting ongoing career development.
What You’ll Need as a Lead Inspector:
* A strong inspection background with at least 5 years' experience, ideally coming through an apprenticeship, HNC or HND route.
* Proven ability to program and operate CMMs
* Deep understanding of engineering drawings, tolerances, and metrology principles (including submicron measurement).
* Experience working within precision engineering
* Confident leadership and communication skills with the ability to mentor and train others
Why Join as a Lead Inspector?
This is more than a supervisory role. It's a chance to shape, lead and grow the department and support the development of more junior members of the team. You’ll work in a high-precision environment with the backing of a global organisation — and the freedom to make the department your own.
You'll also:
* Play a key leadership role within a well-established, and rapidly growing manufacturer that forms part of a globally recognised engineering group
* Choose early or late shifts to suit your schedule (20% premium for late shifts)
* Benefit from a package including 25 days holiday, subsidised healthcare + 5% employer pension
