• Partner with senior leaders to support product launches, customer requirements, and global market expansion through effective quality planning
• Build and develop a high-performing global quality function and culture, lifting capability and enabling consistent execution across regions

• Demonstrated experience leading quality at scale within manufacturing, engineering, or similarly complex, multi-site environments
• Proven success designing and embedding global QMS frameworks that enable consistency, clarity, and accountability across regions
• Strong capability to influence and challenge senior leaders, ensuring quality is embedded in core business decisions, not treated as a downstream function
• A track record of lifting quality performance through data, governance, and proactive risk management, not just reactive issue resolution
