This role is a unique blend of enterprise QMS ownership and regional quality leadership. You'll own key global quality processes such as CAPA and document control while serving as a trusted quality partner to operational leaders across the business. Barnes is looking for a strategic problem solver who can influence globally, identify systemic risks, and drive process excellence across multiple aerospace sites rather than simply maintain compliance.

Core Responsibilities:

• Lead the design, harmonization, deployment, and continuous improvement of the Barnes Aerospace Quality Management System across multiple global sites.
• Own assigned enterprise Quality processes and associated standards, procedures, tools, training requirements, and performance measures. Process portfolios may include nonconformance/MRB, CAPA, change management, document control, customer escapes, control of nonconforming outputs, Quality data, and management review.
• Translate customer, regulatory, and business requirements into practical, scalable QMS processes that support AS9100/AS9110, AS13100, applicable aviation-authority requirements, and customer-specific requirements.
• Define and maintain global QMS architecture, harmonized procedures, process maps, roles/responsibilities, and minimum operating standards while supporting appropriate site-level flexibility.
• Partner with Operations, Engineering, Information Technology, and site Quality teams to define and deploy Quality-process requirements within ERP, MES, QMS, and related digital tools.
• Establish and monitor enterprise Quality metrics, process-effectiveness measures, trends, and risk indicators; provide clear analysis, recommendations, and management-review input to leadership.
• Lead cross-site process deployment, change management, communication, training support, and adoption activities; verify that implemented processes are effective and consistently applied.
• Identify systemic issues and best practices across sites; facilitate cross-site learning, corrective-action effectiveness, and continuous-improvement initiatives.
• Serve as the Regional Quality Business Partner and principal Quality point of contact for the assigned Asia/Europe Operations President. Coordinate regional Quality priorities, process deployment, significant risks, and escalations.
• Build effective working relationships with Site Quality Managers, Site General Managers, and functional leaders. Provide functional process support and influence without assuming responsibility for daily site Quality execution.
• Support significant customer, regulatory, and certification activities as needed, particularly where enterprise process ownership, harmonization, or systemic risk is involved.
• Travel domestically and internationally as required, anticipated at approximately 15–25% of the time.

Qualifications:

• Minimum of 10 years of progressive Quality, manufacturing, engineering, or operational-excellence experience in a complex manufacturing environment; aerospace experience strongly preferred.
• Demonstrated experience designing, deploying, or improving QMS processes across multiple sites, functions, or business units.
• Strong working knowledge of AS9100/AS9110, customer-specific Quality requirements, and applicable aviation regulations; familiarity with AS13100 is preferred.
• Working knowledge of CAPA, root-cause analysis, nonconformance control, document control, change management, management review, risk management, and Quality performance metrics.
• Experience translating business and Quality-process requirements into ERP, MES, QMS, or other digital-workflow solutions.
• Proven ability to lead cross-functional change, influence without direct authority, and build alignment among Operations, Engineering, Quality, and business leadership.
• Strong analytical, project-management, communication, and presentation skills, with the ability to turn complex requirements and data into clear, actionable direction.
• Demonstrated ability to work effectively across cultures, time zones, and changing business priorities.
• Familiarity with FAA-regulated aerospace manufacturing or repair operations is strongly preferred.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office applications; experience with QMS, ERP, MES, and business-intelligence tools is preferred.

Education Requirements:

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Manufacturing, Quality, or a related technical discipline; equivalent relevant technical experience may be considered.
