About the Company
TMS Grid is a growing UK power and renewable energy business delivering electrical infrastructure and EPC/ICP solutions across the energy sector, including grid connections, HV/LV infrastructure, solar and BESS projects.
About the Role
This is a key appointment for TMS Grid. We are looking for an experienced Quality Manager who can hit the ground running, assess our current position, identify what needs to change and take action. This is not a role for someone who needs to be developed into a Quality Manager or who is primarily focused on maintaining paperwork. We need someone who has already done the job, understands what good quality management looks like and has the confidence and experience to implement it. You will have the opportunity to make a significant impact on the way quality is managed across TMS Grid.
Responsibilities
- Leading and improving the ISO 9001 Quality Management System.
- Establishing clear and effective quality processes and standards.
- Reviewing quality arrangements across live projects and identifying weaknesses, risks and areas for improvement.
- Developing and maintaining Project Quality Plans, ITPs and appropriate inspection and testing arrangements.
- Managing NCRs, defects, root cause analysis and corrective actions through to effective closure.
- Leading internal audits and supporting ISO, client and external audits.
- Monitoring project quality, workmanship, materials, documentation and compliance.
- Working closely with Project Managers, Design, Procurement, Construction and site teams to prevent quality issues rather than simply reacting to them.
- Managing quality requirements and performance across suppliers and subcontractors.
- Working closely with the Design Manager on design-related quality matters.
- Establishing meaningful quality KPIs and providing clear reporting to senior management.
- Identifying recurring issues and implementing practical improvements.
- Driving a culture of quality, accountability and continuous improvement across the business.
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.
