Quality Manager

An excellent opportunity has arisen for a Quality Manager to lead the development, implementation, and continuous improvement of an ISO 9001-certified Quality Management System within a precision engineering and manufacturing environment. Reporting to senior leadership, you will drive quality performance, supplier assurance, regulatory compliance, and continuous improvement while ensuring products consistently meet customer, industry, and business standards.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead and continuously improve the ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management System, ensuring ongoing compliance through internal, external, and customer audits.
  • Manage all aspects of quality across manufacturing, inspection, testing, supplier quality, and customer complaints, implementing robust root cause analysis and corrective actions.
  • Lead, develop, and support the Quality team while collaborating with Engineering, Operations, Purchasing, and other departments to drive quality performance.
  • Manage supplier quality activities, including supplier audits, performance management, new supplier approvals, and technical conformance reviews.
  • Drive continuous improvement initiatives using Lean methodologies, PFMEA, MSA, Pareto analysis, and data-driven investigations while supporting the development of an integrated management system.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
