Ready to step up from QA Officer? This Senior QA Officer (Senior Quality Assurance Officer) role with a leading manufacturer pays up to £40,000. It offers flexitime and a clear path to QA Manager.
Build your day around you: Start any time between 7:30am and 9:30am and finish between 3:30pm and 5:30pm. Do the school run, miss the rush hour, or get to the gym while it’s quiet.
A clear route to management: This role is part of the succession plan for QA Management. You’ll grow into leadership with the business backing you, rather than waiting for someone to leave.
Be the face of quality: You’ll be the main QA contact for your own customers, hosting their audits and quality meetings.
