Checking the work is right before it's signed off
Quality inspector with seven years inspecting welds, fabrications and installations on construction and structural-steel projects in Dublin. Makes sure the work is right before it is signed off — inspecting against drawings and codes, witnessing tests, raising non-conformances, and refusing to pass work that is not up to standard. Caught defective welds before they were covered up and kept projects passing third-party inspection first time. Inspects work against drawings and standards, witnesses and verifies tests, documents inspections, raises and tracks NCRs, and supports handover. Thorough, firm and safety-minded. Looking for a quality-inspector role on projects where the quality of the work genuinely affects people's safety.
