Quality Engineer – Medical Devices – Didcot
A pioneering medical device company in Didcot is looking to appoint a Quality Engineer to support the continued development, manufacture and improvement of its life‑changing technology. Newton Colmore is recruiting for this position exclusively, meaning applications must be made directly through us to be considered.
This is a broad and impactful role within an established Quality function, offering involvement across the full Quality Management System. You will take ownership of key Quality Engineering activities including CAPA, non‑conformities, complaints, change control and internal audits, ensuring ongoing compliance with ISO 13485 and 21 CFR Part 820. You will also contribute to the implementation and management of an eQMS as the organisation continues to scale.
Part of the position will focus on supplier quality management. You will evaluate and approve new suppliers, manage the performance of existing partners, ensure quality agreements are in place and lead supplier audits both remotely and onsite. Alongside this, you will support manufacturing quality by reviewing batch records, establishing quality checkpoints, creating KPIs and helping to embed compliant, efficient production processes.
