Here are some of the things you could be working on in the future:

• Reviewing and updating supplier quality manuals and associated documentation.
• Developing standard operating procedures and harmonized quality processes across regions and functions.
• Monitoring material quality programs and analyzing quality, testing, and supplier performance data to support leadership reviews and KPI reporting.
