A landmark transition is underway as two international industrial leaders-one a pioneer in superalloy recycling and the other a US-based innovator in sustainable biopolymer chemistry-have joined forces in a dedicated facility in Western Australia.
The Quality Manager acts as the architect of this unified future. This is not a "maintenance" role; the successful candidate leads the strategic conversion of two distinct international quality legacies into a single, high-performing Integrated Management System (IMS). This position is designed for a professional who thrives on system integration within a manufacturing environment.
Key Responsibilities
* System Integration: The manager leads the comprehensive roll-out and merger of two international quality systems into one cohesive framework.
* Operational Excellence: This role oversees quality assurance for diverse sectors, including aerospace, oil and gas, medical, and mining.
* HSE Leadership: The position includes overseeing Health, Safety, and Environmental duties, ensuring the facility meets all Australian regulatory standards.
* Strategic Direction: The manager helps to set and drive the strategy for the new joint venture, ensuring quality processes support rapid market distribution.
* Global Collaboration: The individual acts as the technical conduit between local operations and international partners to ensure global standards are met.
* Stakeholder Management: The role requires building meaningful relationships across both business arms to ensure a seamless transition to the new system.
Candidate Requirements
* Manufacturing Pedigree: Proven experience in a chemical, process, or metals manufacturing background is highly beneficial.
* System Conversion Expertise: The ideal candidate possesses a track record of successfully migrating or merging quality systems.
* Autonomous Drive: The company seeks an autonomous self-starter who can navigate the complexities of a new joint venture.
* Strategic Mindset: The individual must be able to analyze trends and feedback to adjust quality strategies as the business scales.
* Communication: Strong interpersonal skills are required, with the ability to influence stakeholders at all levels, both locally and globally.
* Resilience: The role demands a tenacious, positive personality with the flexibility to travel nationally on a regular basis.
The Environment
The Quality Manager is based at a facility focusing on ethical and sustainable supply chain solutions. The joint venture's work spans the recycling of minor metals and the production of environmentally friendly chemical alternatives to traditional petroleum-based products.
