Supplier Quality Engineer

Commutable from: Middlesex / Surrey / Berkshire / Greater London / Buckinghamshire / Kent

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.
