We are currently looking to recruit for a Quality Management Lead (QML) to ensure HPC Project quality requirements are complied with across the full project life cycle (Contract award, Design, Procurement, Manufacture, Test, Shipping, Construction/Installation, Test/Commission and Contract close out). This position will be site based 3 days per week and working offsite 2 days per week with the supply base as and where required.
As the QML you will ensure supply-chain adherence to the contracted quality assurance and quality control requirements. QMLs sit within the Quality Management Team and are deployed to Programmes to serve this primary purpose.

This includes, but is not limited to, the development and implementation of Project Quality Control Plans.

In addition, the work carried out by QML’s supports the HPC Quality Director, HPC Deputy Quality Director, the QDM and their programme in achieving adherence with the Integrated Management System arrangements, putting in place additional project- specific arrangements as required and managing quality for all activities within the scope
of the programme. This includes ensuring the PQCP’s are suitably updated, to evidence the execution of the quality arrangements and the current progress / status of the associated products and site installations.
You will work in close collaboration with all other project functions and the supply chain to ensure that project quality is delivered consistently (safely, efficiently and right first time) compliant with the scope of work and quality arrangements
