  • A workplace culture built on the values of Safety, Quality, Cost, Delivery, and People (SQCDP)

The Role: What You’ll Be Doing

As a CMM Mechanical Inspector, you’ll ensure that aerospace components meet the highest quality standards, supporting both new and existing projects. Your main responsibilities will include:

  • Conducting first-off and batch inspections to verify compliance at every stage of production
