Quality Manager – Engineering / Manufacturing

Competitive Salary + Pension
Burnley, Lancashire
Mon–Thurs 8:00–17:15 (Friday early finish)

Take Ownership. Drive Standards. Make an Impact.

This is not a “maintain the system” role.

This is a hands-on Quality Manager position where you will take full ownership of the Quality Management System, drive improvements, and influence how quality is embedded across the entire business.

You’ll be working within a well-established, profitable engineering manufacturer, supplying into regulated industries — where quality genuinely matters.

The Role:

You’ll lead and develop the company’s quality function, ensuring compliance, improving processes and driving a culture of continuous improvement.

Key responsibilities include:

* Managing and improving the ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management System

* Leading non-conformance investigations and root cause analysis

* Driving continuous improvement (Lean / Six Sigma mindset)

* Managing supplier quality and audits

* Overseeing incoming, in-process and final inspection

* Investigating customer complaints and implementing solutions

* Supporting factory acceptance testing (FAT) of machinery

* Delivering quality training and influencing site-wide standards

* This is a role where you’ll be visible, influential and expected to challenge the status quo.

What We’re Looking For:

Strong experience managing or improving a QMS in manufacturing

Solid knowledge of ISO 9001:2015

Background in engineering / machinery / batch manufacturing

Experience with supplier audits and compliance

Confident communicator who can influence at all levels

Someone who can lead, not just maintain

Desirable:

Internal or Lead Auditor (ISO 9001)

Experience within regulated industries (e.g. food / machinery)

Why This Role?

Genuine ownership of quality across the business

Established, financially secure company (80+ years)

Opportunity to shape systems, not just follow them

Early Friday finish every week
