A great opportunity to develop your career and skill-set within quality inspection, working on-site with a brilliant company based in Blackburn.

A well-known manufacturing business based near Blackburn is recruiting for a Quality Inspector to join their expanding Blackburn-based team, due to a combination of increasing workload and internal promotions. This is an exceptional opportunity for you to join the department as a vital member of the inspection team, focused on ensuring that both goods-in and finished parts are delivered to the highest standard of quality and safety within a global organisation renowned for its technical expertise and commitment to excellence. Along with a competitive salary range of £33,000 - £38,000 per annum (including bonus), this position also offers flexible working hours, generous holiday entitlement and outstanding pension contributions. You will be welcomed into a supportive environment where your attention to detail, collaborative spirit, and willingness to learn are truly valued, with the company able to offer extensive training to develop and expand your existing skill-set.

What you'll do:

Your day-to-day activities will involve examination and inspection of incoming goods and finished components, using both manual techniques and advanced testing equipment.
