Job Description:
Swoon was founded in 2012 with a mission to create distinctive designs that owners will want to keep forever, and a lofty goal to spark home obsession everywhere.
We’re an online-only furniture brand that’s making a digital experience better than a store. We design original pieces in-house and our innovative NPD process discovers the next trend, fast.
Our distinctive look unlocks collaborations with leading retailers like John Lewis and many more. This diversified growth strategy is powering our brand to a significant market share. And we’re just getting started...
Upbeat, ambitious and collaborative – that’s us. We’re a lean team of 25, so if you relish responsibility and like to impact an outcome, we’re the place for you. We’ve made flexible working a permanent thing. Right now, the team works from home but we’re open to what people might need in the future. We hold regular workshops in London and if the team wants to get together in a co-working space, that’s fine too.
What we’re looking for:
We design and make things all over the world and must get them to customers perfectly and on time. But the truth is that it’s hard. We are constantly looking to improve the experience for our customers and we need every part of the supply chain working efficiently to ensure this happens.
We are looking for a highly organised and detail-oriented Quality Control Contractor to carry out 100% end of line QC inspections at our UK manufacturing partners in the Midlands and North Wales.
Reporting into the Head of Operations, you will be responsible for ensuring upholstery products leave the manufacturers in line with our QC standard and that all items have an associated QC report completed.
Key Responsibilities:
1. To carry out in person end of line QC inspections 5 days a week across 3 manufacturers.
2. Ensuring every product is inspected to the highest standard and recorded in our QC platform.
3. Managing your own time and calendar in line with the manufacturers production schedule.
4. Reporting and resolving issues on the production line.
Personal Attributes:
1. Highly organised and proactive.
2. Ability to work independently and as part of a team.
3. Strong work ethic and a commitment to quality.
4. A passion for design and furniture.
5. Flexible and adaptable.
Requirements:
1. Previous upholstery industry experience would be advantageous.
2. IT literate - Microsoft Office Suite / G-suite.
3. Experience in using online QC platforms.
4. Strong problem-solving skills with a keen attention to detail.
