Quality Manager

Up to £55,000 DOE

Yolk Recruitment is proud to be supporting a well-established, precision manufacturing business in the search for an experienced Quality Manager to take ownership of quality operations and drive standards across their Bridgwater site. This is an excellent opportunity for a quality professional from a highly regulated sector such as aerospace, medical devices, or advanced manufacturing to play a key role in shaping quality performance, improving processes, and ensuring the delivery of world-class products to a global customer base.

Working within a technically advanced manufacturing environment, you'll be responsible for maintaining and enhancing the company's quality management systems, leading continuous improvement activity, and ensuring the highest standards of compliance are embedded throughout the operation. This is a hands-on role where your expertise will directly influence customer satisfaction, operational performance, and the future growth of the site.

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.
