Is this you?

You are a meticulous Quality Assurance professional with a passion for ensuring the safety and reliability of offshore assets. You thrive in dynamic environments, collaborating with diverse teams to uphold industry standards and regulations, and you excel in non-destructive testing methodologies, along with possessing exceptional communication skills. If this sounds familiar, we want to hear from you!

Please note: This is NOT a typical QA Inspector role. This is a strategic QA leadership position focused on planning, oversight, and quality governance. You will be the go-to expert for ensuring all NDT-related inspections, documentation, and reports meet rigorous industry standards. Your influence will directly impact the safety, efficiency, and performance of critical offshore assets, including oil rigs and marine vessels.

You'll collaborate closely with engineers and technicians, providing technical guidance, training, and mentorship to ensure seamless project execution and compliance with client specifications. With a focus on continuous improvement, you'll stay abreast of industry developments and emerging technologies, optimising NDT procedures and workflows for enhanced efficiency and reliability.

Where you'll be doing it

Our client, a renowned maritime integrity assurance firm based in Cape Town, is at the forefront of ensuring safety and reliability across offshore assets. With a culture that values innovation, collaboration, and excellence, you'll be part of a dynamic team committed to making a difference in the industry. Embrace a stimulating work environment where your expertise is valued, and professional growth opportunities abound. This role offers a hybrid model after probation is completed.

What you'll need

To excel in this role, you'll need a Qualification in Quality Assurance, Engineering, or a related field, coupled with certification in non-destructive testing methods. Your minimum of 3-5 years of hands-on experience in quality assurance, particularly in the oil and gas sector or heavy fabrication, will be invaluable. Strong communication skills, analytical prowess, and proficiency in NDT equipment and software are essential. Additionally, your deep understanding of industry standards and regulatory frameworks will ensure success in upholding the highest standards of integrity.

What you'll get

Along with a competitive salary, our client offers a huge opportunity for professional development within the industry. Join a team where your contributions are recognized, and your expertise is valued, while making a significant impact in safeguarding offshore assets and enhancing industry standards.
