QA Inspector – About the Role
We are seeking a skilled Quality Inspector to join our team. The ideal candidate will have experience in setting and operating CNC machines — or inspecting the output of one — and will possess the knowledge and skills to verify the quality of components. We are willing to consider applications from less experienced QA staff who wish to progress as long as they have experience working with precision machined metal components.
This QA position will encompass a breadth of different roles, and thus we’re looking for someone who is familiar with an SME precision engineering manufacturing environment and comfortable with the manual handling of metal components.

- Read and interpret technical engineering drawings.
- Maintain records and follow procedures as per the Company’s ISO9001 quality system.
- Review technical drawings ensuring that components conform to the required specifications and dimensions.
- Identify and document any non-conformances and work with the production team to resolve any issues.
- Investigate customers NCRs.
Candidate Requirements (Training will be provided for the right candidate)
- Proficient in the use of inspection tools and equipment (calipers, micrometers, gauges, shadowgraphs, optical measurement machines).
- Experience of working within an ISO9001 QMS environment.
- Thorough understanding of engineering drawings.
