• Oversee life‑time quality records to ensure accurate, up‑to‑date documentation for regulatory compliance and traceability.
• Identify, assess, and mitigate quality risks and hazards through risk management processes.
• Ensure compliance with all nuclear regulatory requirements, codes, standards, and licensing conditions related to QA/QC activities.
• Provide training and guidance on QA/QC procedures, standards, and requirements to promote quality awareness.
• Investigate root causes of quality issues or failures and implement corrective actions to prevent recurrence.
• Monitor key performance indicators (KPIs), prepare progress reports, and communicate QA status and recommendations to project management.
• Develop Inspection and Test Plans (ITPs) to meet construction schedule requirements.
• Champion CFME (Foreign Material Exclusion) to prevent ingress or entrapment of non‑specified materials in equipment and systems during assembly and testing.
• Issue and facilitate closure of site NCRs, and maintain NCR/CAR lessons‑learned logs.

• Holding an Internal Auditor qualification is advantageous.
