The posting

Ready to lead where quality meets action? ETC is looking for a hands-on Quality Improvement Manager to drive data-backed improvements, tackle product and process challenges, and lead an inspector-heavy team to success. In this role, you’ll guide cross-functional teams, dig into quality trends, and turn insights into measurable results—while keeping our ISO systems strong and our operations running smoothly.

Just as important, you’ll be a people-first leader—coaching, developing, and empowering a team of inspectors. You’ll set clear expectations, build accountability, support career growth, and foster a collaborative, high-performance culture where your team can thrive.

You’ll partner across departments and with suppliers to solve problems at the root, reduce defects, and elevate performance across the board—all while building a strong, engaged team that takes pride in delivering quality at every step. If you’re equal parts strategist, problem-solver, and team builder, this is your chance to make a visible impact.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
