Supplier Quality Engineer

This one sits inside a specialist engineering environment where quality decisions have real-world consequences — and where suppliers are treated as partners, not tick-box exercises.

We’re looking for a Supplier Quality Engineer who enjoys being close to the detail and influential at a system level. You’ll work across a diverse mechanical supply base, helping to ensure that complex components and processes consistently meet exacting standards.

In this role, you’ll:

• Act as a key quality interface between engineering, sourcing, and external suppliers
• Support and develop suppliers to meet demanding quality and delivery expectations
• Use data and KPIs to assess performance, identify risk, and drive improvement
• Carry out supplier audits and quality reviews, both for existing partners and potential new suppliers
• Contribute to supplier qualification and certification activity
• Spend time on-site with suppliers in the UK and internationally, building strong technical relationships
• Help maintain robust engineering standards as production volumes and supplier complexity continue to grow

You’ll be working alongside experienced engineers in an environment that values curiosity, rigour, and long‑term thinking. Ongoing development is taken seriously here — not as a perk, but as a necessity — and you’ll be trusted to apply your judgement rather than follow scripts.

If you’re a quality engineer who wants more influence, more challenge, and work that actually matters, this is worth a closer look — even if you weren’t planning on moving.
