Quality Assurance Manager

Job description

Quality Manager - Major Infrastructure (Based in Suffolk or Norfolk)

We’re looking for a Quality Manager to take ownership of assurance across two high-profile projects within a multi-billion-pound UK energy infrastructure programme.

You’ll lead quality strategy from day one, setting standards, building systems, and holding delivery teams and suppliers to account. This is a hands on role with real influence, acting as the key interface with the client while driving measurable quality outcomes across complex works.

What you’ll be doing:

• Leading all quality activities across major substation and overhead line projects
• Owning project quality plans, KPIs, and audit programmes
• Embedding robust quality control processes across design and construction
• Managing supplier audits, documentation, and compliance
• Supporting wider project governance (HSE, risk, cost, environment)

What we need:

• Proven experience in quality management on major infrastructure projects
• Strong working knowledge of quality systems and audits
• Confidence dealing directly with clients and senior stakeholders
• Professional membership (or working towards) is a plus

Desirable: Experience working on Rail or National Grid related projects.

If you’ve led quality on complex infrastructure and want to play a key role in the UK’s energy transition, this is worth a conversation.
