In the 12-month Quality Placement, you'll gain hands‑on experience across various aspects of quality, including product and process design, issue resolution, and risk management.

Responsibilities will vary depending on the location and role, as each site has unique projects, production processes, and priorities. You could be involved in investigating quality issues, auditing products and suppliers, reviewing materials, analysing data or driving process improvements.

This role will identify improvement opportunities for the team, which will improve efficiency and productivity through already identified improvement projects and to help identify new opportunities for improvement.

You help run proactive quality activities such as PFMEA, reduce quality escapes through improved defect detection and elimination, and contribute to the continuous improvement of the Quality Management System. You also work on improving quality communications and awareness across the facility, participate in staff and management quality forums, and perform trend analysis and action planning to address recurring issues and strengthen overall quality performance.

This opportunity is offered in our Caledonian (Prestwick, Scotland) and Cheltenham sites, during the process we will ask you to share your location and role preferences.
