Southampton | £50,000–£65,000 + benefits
Are you the go-to person for pipework and pressure vessel compliance? Do you live and breathe ASME B31.3, ASME VIII, PED, CE/UKCA, and CPR… and actually enjoy being out on the workshop floor making sure standards are nailed every single time?
If you’re nodding already — you’re our person.
We’re representing an established, hands-on SME mechanical engineering firm working across large oil & gas, petrochemical, utlilites etc. They deliver high-integrity fabrication projects to seriously tight deadlines, and they reputation is built on quality, compliance, and doing things properly.
We’re looking for a Quality Assurance Manager who genuinely understands what “good” looks like in a pipework and pressure vessel fabrication environment, and who isn’t afraid to take ownership of the quality function end-to-end.

*
Ensuring strict compliance to pipework and pressure vessel codes including ASME B31.3, ASME VIII, PD5500.

*
Providing technical input on welding standards (ASME IX / BS 15614), materials, design and fabrication.
*
Supporting the workshop teams to ensure projects are delivered right-first-time.
*
Investigating quality issues and driving root-cause corrective actions.
What You MUST Bring
We’re being very direct on this — if you don’t have these, this role won’t be the right fit:
Strong background in pipework fabrication and pressure vessel manufacturing
Hands-on experience with ASME B31.3
Solid understanding of PED, CE/UKCA, CPR and related compliance requirements
Experience from a workshop / fabrication SME is ideal
Working knowledge of ASME VIII, PD5500, welding standards, ITPs and QA systems
Confident producing documentation, reviewing drawings, and ensuring code compliance on the shop floor
What’s In It For You?
*
Salary £50k–£65k DOE
*
25 days holiday + bank holidays
*
Company pension & sick scheme
*
Phone provided
*
