Company: ELEV8 RECRUITMENT LTD

Job Type: Permanent, Full Time

Salary: £35000 - £40000/annum

Quality Inspector - Saxmundham

Job Title: Quality Inspector (Manufacturing)

Location: Saxmundham, Suffolk

Salary: £35k-£40k + Overtime & Bonus

Shift: Double Days (6am-2pm / 2pm-10pm rotating)

The Reality Check: Most Quality roles are about firefighting someone else's mess, drowning in paperwork, and being ignored when you flag issues early. You end up feeling like a "policeman" that production tries to avoid.

The Opportunity: I am working with a Medical Device manufacturer that does things differently. In this business, Quality has a seat at the table. When you spot a process issue, you aren't just logging it, you are part of the team fixing it. The engineering team actually wants your input.

What Makes This Role Different:

* Technical Ownership: You will be on the shop floor, using your hands and your expertise (Mechanical checks, Visual inspection, Calibration) rather than just entering data into a spreadsheet.

* Modern Systems: They are ISO 13485 and FDA regulated, but they use digital systems that actually work, supporting you instead of slowing you down.

* Real-World Impact: You are inspecting products that go directly into hospitals and clinics. Your work directly impacts patient safety.

Who You Are:

* You are likely in a regulated manufacturing environment (Aerospace, Automotive, Medical, or Precision Engineering) and you are tired of standards being "optional."

* You can read technical drawings and specs independently.

* You prefer being part of a solution rather than just reporting problems.

* You are the type of person who gets annoyed by shortcuts or sloppy standards.

The Rewards:

* £35,000 - £40,000 base salary + annual reviews.

* Overtime paid at premium rates.

* 22 days holiday + Bank Holidays + your birthday off.

* Bonus scheme, dental scheme, and company pension.

* A culture where "Quality" is a core value, not a bottleneck.
