6-month contract · Farnborough, Hampshire
A global aerospace manufacturer is hiring a Senior Quality Engineer for its Farnborough site on a 6-month contract. The site designs and manufactures high-reliability aerospace products for commercial, defence and industrial applications, and works to AS/EN 9100.
You will sit in a quality team of about 11 (senior engineers, quality engineers, inspectors and a compliance manager): a mix of experienced people and a younger, developing group. The brief is day-to-day quality ownership, investigations that need to go further than a standard check, and being the credible quality voice with customers and across the site.
You will
* Own general quality checks, non-conformance control and the internal quality rhythm of the site.
* Lead 8D problem solving, from containment through root cause and corrective action.
* Drive MRB activity and make clear dispositions.
* Take over external customer calls, audits and site visits.
* Facilitate the weekly and monthly quality meetings.
* Influence operators, production and other departments, including stopping production when product or process integrity is at risk.
* Support a developing team, working alongside the existing seniors.
You will bring
* Senior quality engineering experience in aerospace manufacturing.
* Hands-on 8D and MRB ownership, including cases that went beyond containment.
* Customer audit, call and site-visit experience.
* Working knowledge of AS/EN 9100.
* The presence to stop the line, and clear communication for meetings and customers.
* Right to work in the UK and availability to be on site in Farnborough.
