Head of Quality Control
About The Position

You will set clear standards for your team, conduct visual inspections yourself, coach technique, audit work, and balance throughput and quality. You will be comfortable with SOPs, checklists, training, and AQL-style audits for final verification.

This is a full-time, on-site position.
