We are now looking for an experienced Quality Manager to take ownership of our Quality Management System and act as our Responsible Welding Coordinator (RWC). This is a hands-on role, where you will review, develop, and implement processes that ensure compliance, efficiency, and continual improvement across the business.
Currently, this post is anticipated to last 6 months, however there is a possibility of it evolving in to a longer term and potentially permanent position.
Key Responsibilities
Quality Management System (QMS):
* Review, update, and improve the company’s QMS in line with current business needs.
* Align processes where possible with group systems, highlighting any gaps.
* Create and implement processes, procedures, and supporting documentation.
* Develop and roll out training and guidance to staff.
* Establish an internal audit schedule, conduct audits, and recruit/train internal auditors.
* Overhaul the QMS filing system to be user-friendly and accessible.
* Introduce and embed a robust internal and external NCR system.
Quality Inspection
* Define and implement inspection requirements for the manufacturing process.
* Asist in identifying, recruiting and managing quality inspectors as needed.
* Track and report on KPIs to demonstrate inspection effectiveness.
* Ensure NDT testing is carried out in line with requirements, monitoring results and corrective actions.
Operational Quality Support
* Develop quality plans for customer orders and agree these with internal teams and clients.
* Oversee adherence to quality plans, holding stakeholders accountable.
* Arrange and host internal and third-party inspections, managing external auditors and assessors.
Responsible Welding Coordinator
* Ensure compliance with EN1090, maintaining all required welding procedures.
* Oversee WPS and related documentation.
* Provide training and guidance to welding staff to meet required standards.
* Liaise with the external Welding Coordinator to improve processes and strengthen compliance.
About You
* Strong knowledge of EN1090 and welding requirements.
* Proven experience implementing and managing QMS systems (ISO9001 minimum).
* Background in quality within a steel fabrication environment.
* Practical, hands-on approach — not a consultancy role, but someone who takes ownership.
* Excellent IT skills and ability to create clear, structured documentation.
* Strong communicator, with the ability to influence and support at all levels.
What We Offer
* 33 days holiday including Bank Holidays and Christmas shutdown
* Competitive salary, dependent on experience
* Company pension scheme
* On-site parking
* Opportunities for training and development
* Bank Holidays off & Christmas shutdown
If you are a quality professional with a strong background in steel fabrication and a practical approach to leadership, this is an excellent opportunity to make a real impact.
