Job Description

QSHE Manager

Exeter

£58,000 - £59,998 + Benefits

Shape the future of quality at a precision engineering business with real impact and full senior team visibility.

You’ll take the lead on driving quality performance across the business, directly influencing standards that affect aerospace, medical, and OEM manufacturing. With a clear path to AS9100 implementation and strong backing from leadership, you’ll build systems that last—and that elevate your career.

Enjoy a structured yet flexible environment where your expertise is valued. You’ll benefit from a performance-related bonus, 25 days’ holiday and with salary sacrifice options and solid investment in your development, you’ll have everything you need to grow.

On the technical side, you’ll be at the heart of maintaining and improving key standards, including ISO9001, ISO14001, and ISO45001. You’ll drive supplier quality performance, lead problem-solving initiatives, and support the company’s move from Gold to Platinum Carbon Literacy—giving you a chance to influence sustainability in a meaningful way.

What you’ll do

Leading the quality function, you’ll focus on reducing the cost of poor quality while boosting RFT and OTIF metrics. This is your chance to shape the company’s quality mission and make a visible impact on performance and profitability.

You'll take ownership of AS9100 implementation, working closely with senior leadership to embed it across the business. Alongside this, you'll maintain and improve existing standards, ensuring the company stays ahead in quality, environmental, and HSE performance.

What you’ll need

  * Experience in quality management, particularly with AS9100 standards

  * Strong knowledge of a broad range of quality tools

  * Background in component manufacturing, ideally precision engineering

About the company

This SME precision engineering business supplies medical, aerospace, and OEM sectors. It’s small enough to care but big enough to compete, with high-precision, medium-volume production of complex parts. With a loyal customer base and a well-managed supply chain, the company is profitable and investing in its future—just like you will be.
