Quality Control + Panel Production - Shared Role

ASKIN Performance Panels is looking for a Quality Control Inspector to join our manufacturing team at Dandenong South.

This is a shared role combining Quality Control and hands-on panel production. It is not a full time Quality Control position.

The successful candidate will work across two key areas:

Quality Control

Inspect insulated panels throughout the manufacturing process.

Complete visual and dimensional quality checks against specifications, drawings and customer requirements.

Identify, record and elevate defects and non-conformances.

Assist with investigations, corrective actions and reducing recurring quality issues.

Maintain quality records and support continuous improvement.

Work on our panel production lines when Quality Control activities are not required.

Operate production machinery where trained and competent.

Provide coverage for machine operators and assist with general production duties.

Develop a strong practical understanding of our manufacturing processes and products.

The balance between Quality Control and production work will depend on manufacturing requirements. Candidates must be comfortable working across both areas as part of their normal role.
