This is not a box-ticking quality role.

This is a hands-on, high-impact position for an experienced aerospace Quality Manager who thrives in a fast-moving manufacturing environment and wants real influence over standards, systems and outcomes.

An established and growing aerospace manufacturing business in Kent is looking for a Quality leader to take ownership of its Quality function — driving compliance, strengthening processes and acting as a key figure between production, engineering and customers.

The role
You’ll be responsible for the full Quality landscape across the business, with visibility and impact from shop floor to senior leadership. This is a role for someone who enjoys being close to the operation, not hidden behind a desk.

Key responsibilities include:
Leading and developing the site Quality Management System within an aerospace manufacturing environment
Owning compliance to AS9100 and aerospace standards, customer approvals and regulatory requirements
Acting as the primary point of contact for customer audits, external approvals and certifications
Driving continuous improvement, root cause analysis and corrective actions
Working closely with production and engineering teams to embed quality at every stage
Managing non-conformances, concessions and quality investigations
Coaching and influencing teams to raise quality awareness and accountability across the site

What we’re looking for
This role requires proven aerospace manufacturing experience — this is non-negotiable.

You will need:
Demonstrable experience in a Quality leadership role within aerospace manufacturing
Strong working knowledge of AS9100 and aerospace quality standards
Confidence operating in a regulated, precision manufacturing environment
A pragmatic, hands-on approach — comfortable on the shop floor as well as in audits
The ability to challenge, influence and improve without adding unnecessary bureaucracy
Strong communication skills and the credibility to represent the business with customers

Why consider this opportunity?
A business that is stable, growing and investing
A role with genuine autonomy and visibility
The opportunity to shape and improve quality processes rather than inherit rigid systems
A leadership position where your expertise will be listened to and valued

Sociable hours with an early finish every Friday
