* Identifying and implementing sector-specific accreditations and approvals

* Working closely with senior leadership to support ambitious growth plans

* Creating robust systems and processes capable of supporting highly regulated industries

What We're Looking For

We're keen to speak with experienced manufacturing professionals who combine strong quality expertise with operational leadership experience.

Experience within the following sectors would be particularly attractive: Precision Engineering; Fasteners; Machined Components; Aerospace; Automotive; Defence; Nuclear; High-Integrity Manufacturing

You must have a proven track record of managing quality systems within a manufacturing environment and be capable of influencing both strategic direction and day-to-day operations.

Why Join?

* Genuine opportunity to influence company strategy

* Succession plan into a broader operational leadership role

* Growing and financially strong business

* Supportive and family-oriented culture

* Excellent staff retention

* Private Healthcare

* Pension Scheme

* 28 Days Holiday plus Statutory Holidays

* Company Events and Team Building Activities

* Long-Term Career Development

This is a rare opportunity to join a business at an exciting stage of growth and take ownership of a role that offers both immediate impact and long-term progression.
