Quality Assurance Manager

Location: Fareham, Hampshire
Salary: Up to £65,000

Are you an experienced Quality professional looking to take ownership of QA systems within a growing, technology-driven engineering environment?

This is an excellent opportunity to lead and develop quality processes across a business working on advanced hardware, software, and firmware products, with increasing focus on high-reliability and regulated markets.

The Role

As Quality Assurance Manager, you’ll take responsibility for developing, implementing, and maintaining the company’s Quality Management System, ensuring compliance with industry standards while supporting engineering and product development teams.

You’ll act as the key point of contact for all QA-related activities, both internally and externally, driving continuous improvement and ensuring the highest standards are met across the business.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead and develop the company’s Quality Management System (QMS)
  • Ensure compliance with ISO9001 and support progression toward additional standards
  • Act as the main QA contact for customers across pre-sales, production, and failure analysis
  • Identify, investigate, and resolve quality issues and non-conformities
  • Plan and manage internal and external audit activities
  • Monitor performance through audits, reviews, and customer feedback
  • Produce and maintain quality documentation, reports, and procedures
  • Support the development and continuous improvement of business processes
  • Work closely with engineering teams to ensure quality is embedded across the product lifecycle

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.
