Quality & Process Engineer
Automotive Aftermarket Manufacturer
Smethwick
Do you have a sharp eye for quality, a head for process, and the drive to make things better?
We’re recruiting for an experienced Quality & Process Engineer to play a key role in improving processes, driving quality, and delivering practical engineering solutions that make a real commercial impact.
This isn’t a “tick-the-box” quality role — you’ll be actively involved across Production, Quality, Engineering, Environmental, Health & Safety, and Training, helping to set standards and make sure they’re met.
The Role
You’ll work closely with teams across the business to:


  • Develop, implement, and maintain the Quality & Environmental Management System (QEMS) and Business Management System (BMS) in line with industry standards.

  • Design and develop new products, improvements, tooling, fixtures, and associated equipment.

  • Carry out supplier, product, and service audits to ensure everything meets required specifications.

  • Create and maintain Standard Operating Procedures, Work Instructions, and technical documentation such as FMEAs, Control Plans, and PFDs.

  • Champion continual improvement in processes, quality, and production capabilities.

  • Deliver both formal and on-the-job training to embed quality awareness across the business.

What’s in it for you?


  • Competitive salary

  • 25 days’ holiday plus bank holidays

  • Life cover at 3x your base salary

  • 5% employer pension contribution after 12 months

  • Ongoing training and genuine career development

  • Wellbeing support and paid leave for reservists

What You’ll Need


  • Degree (or equivalent) in Automotive Engineering or related field

  • Strong organisational, communication, and problem-solving skills

  • Proficient in MS Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Project)

  • Knowledge of ISO, IATF, and APQP standards plus quality/project management techniques

  • Audit qualification (or willingness to achieve one)

If you’re ready to take ownership, influence standards, and deliver results in a business where quality is more than a buzzword, we’d like to hear from you.Don't worry about if your CV is up to date, we can sort that out later.
Apply now, and Stewart Lupton at JSL Solutions – Automotive Aftermarket Recruitment – will be in touch.

Where to Advertise Semiconductor Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Advertising semiconductor jobs in the UK requires a fundamentally different approach to most technical hiring. The candidate pool is one of the smallest and most specialised in any engineering discipline — spanning IC design engineers, process engineers, fab technicians, EDA tool developers, compound semiconductor physicists and power electronics specialists. General job boards are largely ineffective for semiconductor hiring. The community is tight-knit, highly academic in its roots and concentrated around a small number of university groups, fab facilities and design centres. Specialist boards, academic channels and direct community engagement are the primary sourcing strategies that work. This guide, published by SemiconductorJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise semiconductor roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

New Semiconductor Employers to Watch in 2026: UK and International Companies Transforming Chip Careers

The semiconductor industry is entering a new era of investment, geopolitical significance, and technological innovation. As advanced chips power everything from artificial intelligence and edge computing to autonomous vehicles and 5G infrastructure, demand for skilled professionals across design, verification, fabrication, and test engineering continues to rise. For professionals exploring opportunities on www.SemiconductorJobs.co.uk , understanding which employers are scaling, raising funds, winning contracts, or establishing UK operations is critical. This article highlights the new semiconductor employers to watch in 2026, including UK innovators, major international players expanding locally, and emerging firms driving next‑generation semiconductor technologies.

How Many Semiconductor Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Semiconductor Job?

If you’re pursuing a career in the semiconductor industry, it can feel like you’re expected to master an endless list of tools, software packages and lab equipment before you even submit a CV. One job advert wants experience with TCAD and process simulation, another mentions SPICE and yield tools, while yet another asks for test automation platforms, yield analysis software, hardware description languages, EDA suites and hundreds of others. With so many technical names thrown around, it’s easy to fall into “tool anxiety” — the feeling that you’re behind because you don’t know every piece of software, every lab instrument and every process control suite. Here’s the honest truth most semiconductor hiring managers won’t say out loud: 👉 They don’t hire you because you know every tool — they hire you because you can use the right tools to solve real engineering problems and explain your reasoning clearly. Tools matter, absolutely. But they exist to help you deliver measurable results — not to be collected like badges. So how many semiconductor tools do you actually need to know to get a job? The answer is a lot fewer than you might think — and far more focused on core capabilities than a long checklist. This guide breaks down what employers really value, which tools are essential, which are role-specific, and how to focus your learning so you are confident and credible.
