Job description

Overview

QA Manager
£35,000 - £45,000
Merseyside

This is a super opportunity to move into a business with solid foundations, that is now looking for that next “extension”. If you live and breathe food quality, this is the kind of role that gets you out of bed in the morning. This isn’t just about ticking BRCGS boxes – it’s about shaping a culture of quality in an FMCG environment where every product that leaves the factory reflects the craft and care that went into making it. Beautiful doesn’t need to be big. That’s true here for both the product and company. Unilever it is not, but successful and real it is. And in few other places will you feel more connection to the company or the product and how it makes the community in the area feel.

About the Role

As QA Manager, you’ll take ownership of all things quality – from raw materials through to finished goods. You’ll lead internal audits, keep the factory compliant with BRCGS standards, and make sure technical specs aren’t properly completed.

Responsibilities

• Take ownership of all things quality – from raw materials through to finished goods.
• Lead internal audits and ensure the factory remains compliant with BRCGS standards.
• Make sure technical specs aren’t properly completed.

Who We’re Looking For

You’ll be the kind of person who notices the small things that others don’t. Ideally, you’ve worked in food manufacturing or the FMCG sector before, and you understand BRCGS compliance and industry regulations inside out.

• Organised, detail-driven, and proactive.
• Confident in leading audits and dealing with customers.
• Skilled in spotting gaps in quality systems – and fixing them fast.
• Comfortable liaising across all levels of a business, from operators to directors.

What’s on Offer

A competitive package is just the start. You’ll have real influence in how the factory operates, the support of an experienced leadership team, and the opportunity to leave your mark on a business that genuinely values quality.
