Working collaboratively with cross-functional teams, licensors, customers, suppliers, and key stakeholders, you'll champion best practices, maintain the highest quality standards, and help deliver products our customers can trust.

This is an exciting opportunity for a quality professional who thrives in a collaborative environment, values continuous improvement, and is committed to upholding company values while ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements, company policies, and employment legislation. If you're passionate about quality, governance, and making a tangible impact, we'd love to hear from you.

You'll be at the forefront of delivering complex aerospace transition and quality programmes that make a real impact. Working across licensing, acquisitions, and product transfers, you'll provide expert quality guidance on novation activities, lead regulatory authority approvals (including UK CAA, FAA, EASA and Military requirements), and coordinate Design Authority and STC/TSO/ETSO transfer activities.

Reporting to Project Management Office you'll also partner with Project Managers, licensors, suppliers, and cross-functional teams to drive First Article Inspection (FAI) programmes, resolve technical and supplier quality challenges, and ensure projects are delivered on time and to the highest standards. This is an exciting opportunity for a proactive quality professional who thrives on solving complex problems, influencing stakeholders, driving continuous improvement, and helping bring critical aerospace products successfully into production.
