Role Overview:

As a Quality Inspector, your main duties will be to oversee inspection processes to ensure that all mechanical and electrical (M&E) products meet required quality standards, escalating quality issues to the Quality Control Manager while maintaining full traceability of all production items via the electronic quality system. Additionally, you may be required to present quality procedures and insights from past projects during manufacturing and assembly reviews.

Your role will include inspecting, testing, measuring, and reporting on materials and products at the point of delivery, during assembly, and in-storage checks ensuring that quality processes are effectively used to detect and control specification, quality and compliance failures.

You will also be responsible for paint inspection, assessing modular fit-outs, plantroom installations, torque record validation, audit support, and compilation of inspection reports, ensuring compliance with regulatory standards and client specifications.
