Full Job Description
This is not a desk-based quality role. The Quality Lead is a hands-on, shop-floor-focused position responsible for improving how quality is delivered across the business.
You will work directly with production, supply chain, logistics and aftercare teams to reduce defects, rework, complaints and service failures.
You will define what good looks like, embed it into daily operations, and ensure issues are properly resolved at root cause, not repeated.
This is a visible role within our TOPEx continuous improvement programme, with real influence over standards, behaviours and performance.
What You Will Be Doing
Being a consistent, visible presence on the shop floor
Setting clear, practical quality standards across materials, processes and finished products
Driving right-first-time build quality
Identifying issues early and ensuring they are properly resolved
Leading structured root cause investigations into defects and complaints
Implementing corrective and preventative actions that actually stick
Using data and customer feedback to drive improvement
Managing non-conforming materials without disrupting output
Tracking performance, spotting trends and challenging where needed
Coaching and developing teams to take ownership of quality
Proven experience improving quality in a manufacturing environment
Comfortable working hands-on with production teams
Strong root cause problem-solving capability
Able to operate at pace in a changing environment
Direct, accountable and solution-focused
Someone who sets standards and follows through
You do not need a long list of qualifications. Real experience, judgement and the ability to make things better matter more.
Woodlands Home & Garden Group is a growing UK manufacturing and distribution business, best known for our Tiger Sheds brand.
