• Data collection for ISIR completion and submission on the Aston Martin project• Non-conforming product management on the Aston Martin project (machined parts only)

• Conducted comprehensive goods inwards inspections on an extensive array of over one thousand distinct sub-contracted and assembly parts, ensuring adherence to rigorous quality standards.• Demonstrated a proactive approach by promptly initiating external complaints to suppliers whenever a sample assessment revealed non-conforming items. Skilfully oversaw the containment of affected batches and meticulously evaluated each 8D report, rigorously investigating root causes and assessing the appropriateness of corrective action plans.• Excelled in the role of Customer Complaints Coordinator, proficiently conducting in-depth root cause analyses, and facilitating effective resolutions.• Orchestrated and led multifaceted teams for Design Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (DFEMA) and Process Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (PFMEA), showcasing a versatile skill set.• Consistently provided diligent and timely feedback and support to address supplier-related issues, contributing to overall improvements in part quality. Proficiently managed Supplier Chain Management (SCM) Business Intelligence reporting, consistently meeting monthly Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) such as non-conforming product rates, internal scrap levels, right-first-time metrics, and identification of the five lowest-performing suppliers based on departmental data.

• Held the esteemed position of overseeing the Quality department, with responsibilities akin to those of a Quality Manager.• Spearheaded the comprehensive redevelopment of the ISO 9001 Quality Management System while concurrently managing the upkeep of the existing Quality Management System (QMS).• Diligently executed the completion of First Article Inspection Reports (FAIR) to uphold rigorous quality standards.• Assumed a pivotal role in managing and effectively addressing customer complaints, as well as handling complaints directed towards suppliers and subcontractors. Proficiently crafted and delivered 8D reports, both for external customers and internal stakeholders, to ensure robust issue resolution and continuous improvement.

• Demonstrated leadership by successfully leading two internal process audits, and further contributed to two others as a co-auditor. Each of these audits received an "A" ranking, attesting to the rigor and effectiveness of the audit process.• Coordinated the seamless implementation of corrective actions and executed thorough 5 Whys analysis across all departments, ensuring continuous process improvement stemming from process audits.• Directed and managed a dedicated team, comprising two members responsible for Measurement System Analysis (MSA) and product audits, as well as another team member overseeing frame verification and maintenance. Notably, I expanded the team's capacity by adding six new members who assumed roles as quality line controllers.• Led both internal and external metrology efforts to ascertain the precision of instruments used within the company. This encompassed meticulous maintenance of the MSA database. Whenever new machinery, instruments, personnel, or processes were introduced, I conducted MSA analyses to guarantee their capability. In some cases, new machines required analysis at the place of purchase to validate their suitability.• Developed Computer Numerical Control (CNC) Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM) measuring programs for both new and used moulds within the press area, concurrently managing measurements of plates to ensure adherence to exacting quality standards.• Assumed responsibility for the creation and updates of work instructions and procedures, primarily focusing on the quality department but extending assistance to other departments as necessary, to ensure consistency and adherence to established protocols.

• Took charge of the internally developed machine verification system, designed to systematically validate the ongoing performance of machinery at specified intervals. This system ensured that the machines remained within their operational parameters and retained their capability.• Collaborated effectively with a colleague from the maintenance department to successfully enhance the internal temperature control of our ovens, contributing to improved process efficiency.• Assumed a key role in managing and executing product audits for Original Equipment (OE) clients in accordance with Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) guidelines. Additionally, established and maintained Production Part Approval Process (PPAP) measurements, specifically for incoming materials, with the utilization of a state-of-the-art 3D machine, focusing primarily on metal plates.• Functioned as a proficient back-up technician for testing and assumed responsibilities as a line controller, overseeing visual inspections and measurements to uphold stringent quality standards.• Spearheaded the management of both internal and external metrology systems, ensuring precise measurements and calibration of instruments used within the company.• Pioneered the creation of "live" scrap reports, a dynamic reporting system that significantly improved the visibility of failures throughout the production process, enabling prompt corrective actions and process enhancements.
