Job DescriptionFancy up-skilling and working as a Quality Inspector? Or maybe you’re a Vehicle Inspector and want to work somewhere you’re really valued, you’re not just a number and the people around you are supportive. You might work in metrology and those skills will allow you to conduct vehicle audits, and pick things up quickly. You’ll work well on your own, but also well as a whole with the Production team to decide which Goods in Parts are needed as priority.
The person currently in this role arrived with no vehicle inspection knowledge and has been a great success. Although the Vehicle Inspection side of the role can be taught, we do need someone with some Metrology experience (you don’t need to be an expert).
The team are great, you have the full support of not just your direct team but those around you. However, as you know with smaller businesses, you need to be dynamic – in not so many words be able to embrace the chaos at times. With the business growing you’ll have a chance to really help put a stamp on things in your department and to show your capabilities to the wider teams. As the business is small enough, when you do something well, everyone will know it was you. If you thrive with a high level of responsibility, you will get the opportunity to make processes your own and improve the Quality department as you see fit. At times there is an element of being reactive, but on quiet days we would hope that you will be on-hand to make improvements where possible.
We will need ‘all hands-on deck’ and on-site, but we can offer a very attractive benefit of working a half-day on Friday every week! This benefit is taken very seriously and is honoured even at the busiest of times.
As somebody who has experience within a Quality team as a Quality Inspector, you will already be able to show that you have used basic hand tools for measurement, can be creative – you know, for the times where you may have limited tools. You’ll know how to read and understand engineering drawings and problem solve using your knowledge and experience.
Snapshot of Key Responsibilities:
- Input inspection data and information into the Quality database.
- Verify conformance to drawings and specifications by inspecting, testing and measuring parts/components as part of the goods in process
- Producing Non-Conformance Reports for failed parts, and work alongside the Supplier Quality Engineer for NCR resolution process across the supplier portfolio.
- Ensure metrology equipment is fully calibrated
- Use the MRP system and when inspection is complete transferring parts into stock/Quarantine.
- Participate in root cause investigation and corrective actions for supplier quality concerns
