ABOUT RENRON

Renron Australia is a specialist structural steel fabrication and welding business supporting major infrastructure and industrial projects. Founded in 2017, we have grown from an onsite welding provider into a multi-state business with a substantial fabrication facility in Point Cook and operations supporting projects across Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland.

Our work is technically demanding, fast-moving and highly visible to clients. We are looking for a Quality Manager who can bring structure, practical judgement and accountability to the role - someone who sees quality as a way to help production deliver the right result, not simply as an administrative function.

THE OPPORTUNITY

This is a senior, hands-on role leading Renron's quality function from our Point Cook facility. You will work closely with the Production Manager, workshop leadership, project teams and site-based welding supervisors to ensure quality requirements are understood early, planned properly and delivered efficiently.

The successful candidate will be organised, commercially aware and results focused. You will be expected to manage multiple fabrication projects at different stages, resolve issues without unnecessary disruption, and build a constructive working relationship with production while maintaining the standards our clients and certifications require.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

- Lead the day-to-day quality function across multiple concurrent workshop and site projects.
- Work collaboratively with production leadership to plan quality activities, remove roadblocks and support safe, on-time delivery.
- Perform the duties of a Welding Supervisor in accordance with AS/NZS 2214 and/or AS 1796 Certificate 10 requirements.
- Prepare, review and approve project weld plans, welding documentation and Certificate 10 welding reports.
- Develop, qualify, maintain and control WPSs,



PQRs and welder qualifications.
- Coordinate and provide technical oversight to workshop and site-based welding supervisors.
- Prepare project ITPs, quality plans, inspection records, traceability documentation and MDR dossiers.
- Undertake contract, drawing, specification and standards reviews to identify quality requirements before work begins.
- Manage NCRs and corrective actions through to practical close-out, focusing on root cause, prevention and timely resolution.
- Maintain Renron's quality systems, registers and databases so project records remain accurate, current and audit-ready.
- Coordinate NDT providers and other quality-related subcontractors.
- Host client inspectors, surveillance officers, auditors and third-party certification representatives.
- Monitor quality performance, identify recurring issues and implement measurable improvements across the business.
- Mentor and hold accountable quality personnel and welding supervisors across workshop and site operations.

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

- Quality requirements are identified and planned before they become production problems.
- Project documentation is accurate, complete and submitted on time.
- NCRs are addressed promptly and recurring issues reduce over time.
- Production and quality teams work as one team, with clear responsibilities and respectful communication.
- Multiple projects remain controlled, visible and audit-ready without avoidable last-minute pressure.
- Clients and auditors experience a professional, responsive and technically credible quality function.

WHAT YOU WILL BRING

- Current WTIA Welding Supervisor certification to AS/NZS 2214 and/or AS 1796 Certificate 10, or a recognised equivalent acceptable for the role.
- A trade qualification as a boilermaker,



welder or closely related fabrication trade.
- Strong working knowledge of AS/NZS 1554, AS/NZS 5131, ISO 3834 and ISO 9606-1.
- Demonstrated experience managing quality on structural steel, heavy fabrication or major infrastructure projects.
- Proven ability to manage competing priorities and several projects at the same time.
- Experience developing welding procedures, coordinating procedure qualifications and controlling welder qualifications.
- Experience leading welding supervisors, inspectors, quality personnel and specialist subcontractors.
- A practical, solutions-focused approach and the confidence to make sound technical decisions.
- Strong interpersonal skills and the ability to build credibility with workshop leadership, project teams, clients and auditors.
- High-level written communication, document control and reporting skills.
- Proficiency in Microsoft Word, Excel and Adobe Acrobat.

Highly regarded:

Experience with VicRoads Section 630 requirements, Transport for Victoria or Tier 1 infrastructure contractor quality systems; internal or lead auditor qualifications; and experience operating within ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 certified systems.

WHY JOIN RENRON

- A senior role with genuine influence over quality performance and operational outcomes.
- Exposure to technically challenging structural steel and infrastructure projects.
- An established QA support team and direct access to operational decision-makers.
- A business that values practical solutions, accountability and continuous improvement.
- A competitive salary package reflecting the technical and leadership capability required.

IMPORTANT ROLE INFORMATION

This position is based full-time at Renron's Point Cook facility. It is an office-based leadership role with regular engagement in the adjoining fabrication workshop and with site-based personnel. It is not a hybrid or work-from-home position.
