Job description

Your team is made up of 4 Quality Engineers, 3 Inspectors, a Quality Team Leader, a Quality Admin and a Health & Safety Engineer.

Ten people in total.

They're experienced. They know their jobs. What they need from you, as QHSE Manager, is leadership.

Someone who'll give them direction, bring structure to the department and spend time developing the people within it.

Because as QHSE Manager, your success here won't simply be measured by whether the audits are passed and the QMS is up to date.

It'll be in the team you build around you. Spotting potential.

Supporting someone through their next qualification.

Having the difficult conversations when you need to.

Getting everyone pulling in the same direction.

And you'll have the backing to do it. This is a business that already supports people through vocational qualifications, degrees and even Master's degrees.

As QHSE Manager, you'll need the technical credibility too.

You'll take ownership of QHSE within a manufacturing business supplying aerospace, defence and electronics customers. That means QMS, customer quality issues, internal escalations and audits across ISO 9001, AS9100 and NADCAP.

Strong manufacturing quality experience and NEBOSH as a minimum are important.

But you're not joining a business standing still. It's growing around 15-20% each year and investing between £600,000 and £1 million annually back into the shop floor, with £250,000 currently going into the power press shop alone.

As QHSE Manager, you'll have the opportunity to grab hold of the function and shape it as the business grows.

There's the backing of a multinational group, but locally it still feels like a smaller, family business. You'll be visible, approachable and comfortable getting out onto the shop floor rather than managing everything from behind a desk. Your background as QHSE Manager will be aerospace, defence or another highly regulated manufacturing environment and, as you'll be as comfortable leading people as you are dealing with customers, audits and quality issues.

£60,000 - £65,000, 25 days holiday plus bank holidays, Christmas shutdown (some annual leave will be used for this), pension, life insurance and company sick pay.

Because of the defence work, you'll need to satisfy the relevant nationality and security requirements. If you're a QHSE Manager who gets as much satisfaction from developing people as you do improving quality, this gives you plenty to get hold of.
