* Identifying product and process improvements.
* Following up on corrective actions for concessions and non-conformities.
* Daily auditing of production areas for housekeeping and 5S.
* Archiving of production records & documentation.
* Actively participating in CI and H&S initiatives.
Who you are?
Desirable skills would be:
* Experience working in a manufacturing environment operating within an ISO derived quality management system.
* Good working knowledge of injection moulding and manual assembly processes.
* Ability to interpret drawings and take critical dimensions against these.
* Ability to understand and work to standard operating, testing, and measurement procedures.
* A hands-on methodical approach to work, with a positive can-do attitude and excellent problem-solving skills.
* A team player, happy interacting with colleagues at all levels and across different departments.
* Self-motivated with the ability to follow instructions and work under own steam.
* Excellent IT, written, and verbal communication skills.
