Oversee both product quality and supplier quality activities

What We're Looking For

Proven experience as a Quality Manager, ideally from the automotive sector or supplying into OEM environments.
Strong working knowledge of IATF 16949, FMEAs, auditing, and problem-solving tools.
A strong customer-facing mindset-able to engage, influence, and resolve issues confidently.
Demonstrated experience managing, mentoring, and upskilling engineering teams.
