Manufacturing Quality Manager, Bardot Plastics LLC

Description

Position at New Pig Corporation

Quality Control/Assurance Manager - Injection Molding

Bardot Plastics LLC, Easton, PA 18045

Bardot Plastics and New Pig Corporation are both part of the New Pendulum Family of Companies.

About the Role

We are looking for a hands-on Quality Control Manager to lead and build our quality systems within a growing plastic injection molding operation.

This is not a maintenance role - this is a build-it role.

You will take ownership of a currently loose QC structure and transform it into a well-organized, data-driven quality department, while leading the company through ISO 9001:2015 certification from the ground up.

You'll work directly with management and plant leadership to drive quality, accountability, and continuous improvement across a multi-shift operation.

What You'll Do

• Lead implementation of ISO 9001:2015 (documentation, audits, and certification)

• Build and organize the QC department structure and processes

• Establish inspection standards (in-process and final)

• Develop control plans, procedures, and quality documentation

• Troubleshoot molding defects and quality issues on the production floor

• Lead corrective actions (customer and internal) using structured problem-solving methods

• Track and report key quality metrics (scrap, rework, PPM, trends)

• Train QC staff and improve cross-functional communication

• Work closely with production to balance quality and efficiency

What We're Looking For

Must-Have

• 5+ years of experience in plastic injection molding quality or process engineering

• Strong knowledge of molding processes and common defects

• Experience working directly on the production floor

• Proven ability to organize and improve systems

• Strong leadership and communication skills

Nice-to-Have

• Experience implementing or managing ISO 9001:2015 certification

• Familiarity with:

o Control Plans / PFMEA / SPC

o Root Cause Analysis (5-Why, Fishbone, etc.)

• ERP experience (Epicor or similar)

• Experience with calibration system management

Who Will Succeed in This Role

• Someone who enjoys building structure from scratch

• A hands-on problem solver, not just a desk-based quality manager

• Comfortable holding the line on quality - but understands production realities

• A strong communicator who can work across QC, production, and leadership

Why Join Us

• High-impact role reporting directly to leadership

• Opportunity to build and own the quality system

• Stable, growing manufacturing company

• Competitive compensation based on experience
