We are currently offering an exciting opportunity for a talented Measurement & Inspection Capability Leader to join our team and become a key part in the development of our composite fan system. As a Measurement & Inspection Capability Leader you will be responsible for defining, validating and deploying capable measurement and inspection systems to meet the drawing and quality standard requirements of the composite fan blade, containment case and impact liners.
CTAL is at the forefront of advanced carbon fibre design and automated manufacturing, developing the next generation of Rolls-Royce fan blades and casings for future large and medium sized civil engines. These high technology lightweight components have the potential to significantly improve Rolls-Royce's competitiveness through reduced engine fuel consumption and improved environmental emissions.
CTAL is a wholly owned subsidiary of Rolls-Royce, currently based on the Isle of Wight. CTAL is a pre-production facility, created to deliver the composite fan system (blades and containment case) capability upon which future civil gas turbine products will depend. Between 2017 and 2019 there will be a phased relocation from the current IoW facility to the Bristol Rolls-Royce campus, where CTAL will grow to become the Rolls-Royce composite centre of competence.
This is an exciting opportunity to be part of the industrialisation team that will set up CTAL's composite pre-production and production facilities within the Bristol site.
Key Accountabilities:
- Be accountable for measurement and inspection process design and implementation to satisfy MCRL requirements.
- Specify and implement new or upgraded equipment and capabilities; including CMM, laser tracker, Faro arm and NDT systems.
- Manage new product introduction within processes owned by measurement and inspection team.
- Write and validate measurement programmes in MCOSMOS, Polyworks, Spatial Analyser (training will be provided, though existing proficiency is advantageous).
- Maintain inspection standards for inspection and CMM rooms
- Ensure that processes are approved and validated in line with local approval process.
- Ensure measurement data integrity is maintained.
- Optimise processes to ensure effective flow through the plant.
- Raise technical reports to excellent standard at the request of Quality, Manufacturing Engineer Manager, and Business Metrologist.
Qualifications
Essential:
- Knowledge of metrology, calibration and measurement capability is essential.
- Technical understanding of the validation of measurement systems.
- Technical understanding of company measurement standards and best practice.
- Practical experience of capability acquisition and process ownership.
Desirable:
- Understanding of NDT systems desirable.
- MCOSMOS CMM programming for wide chord fan blades desirable.
- Other measurement programming experience including Polyworks, Spatial Analyser, PCDMIS etc desirable.
This role will be based in Bristol but will require travel to the CTAL facility in East Cowes, Isle of Wight as and when appropriate.
At Rolls-Royce, we create integrated power solutions and innovative technologies that keep our customers one step ahead of an ever-changing world.
Create the next generation of innovation.
Trusted to deliver excellence.
We are an equal opportunities employer.
