Quality Manager – Precision Engineering / Manufacturing

Location: County Durham area
Salary: £50,000 – £55,000
Permanent role

I’m recruiting exclusively for a growing precision engineering business looking to appoint a hands-on Quality Manager.

This is a leadership role within a busy manufacturing environment, taking responsibility for the day-to-day quality function and working closely with production to improve standards, reduce scrap, resolve quality issues and support continuous improvement.

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.
