We want to ensure our recruitment process is accessible to all. If you need the application form in an alternative format or you would like to know more about our recruitment process, please get in touch.

Laing O'Rourke's 2025 Mission to become the recognised leader for innovation and excellence in the construction industry is driven by innovation and with technical excellence in design, manufacturing, and construction at its core.

This is our Centre of Excellence for Modern Construction in Worksop, Nottinghamshire. For decades we have refused to accept the limits of traditional construction methods.

We have rewritten the rules and re-set the agenda by investing in a pioneering offsite production approach, known as our DfMA 70:60:30, and bringing the benefits of manufactured components to bear on our projects around the world.

Today, this approach is enabling us to construct faster, more safely, and more efficiently. It is improving product quality, reducing waste, and supporting the creation of a more diverse and digitally skilled workforce.

Do you have experience and knowledge of precast manufacturing?

Are you able to drive the development and implementation of a Quality Management System? And be a person who ensures that the product we manufacture is in full accordance with the project specifications and acceptable standards such as CE/UKCA?

Are you able to coordinate with manufacturing operations, engineering, project coordination and projects, to control and improve the quality levels of goods and services?

What skills & experience are we looking for?

  • Experience in a Quality role; ideally within high regulatory areas.
  • Consideration will also be given to persons from similar processing industries (ie, carbon composites, foundry metallurgy or, automated processing control, under ISO 9001:2015, IATF 16949:2016, or AS9100:2016 standards.
  • Previous experience in concrete plants, batching concrete, and mix designs would be a significant advantage.
  • Experience carrying out quality audits, inspection processes, document control, and process & engineering change.
  • Exposure to Quality toolboxes and skills such as Root Cause Analysis & Corrective Actions, 8D, APQP, PPAP, and Internal auditing.
  • Manufacturing professionals from high regulatory industries such as Automotive, Aerospace, or Rail
  • The ability to interact with Construction professionals to create manufacturing solutions that can drive success into the next level, using care, integrity and courage.
