The demand for experienced quality management professionals has never been higher.

Across manufacturing, aerospace, automotive, and medical industries, companies are under increasing pressure to meet standards like ISO 9001, AS9100, IATF 16949, and ISO 13485. At the same time, many organizations lack the internal resources or expertise to fully manage their Quality Management Systems (QMS).

That’s where AQC Global comes in.

We partner with machine shops, manufacturers, and engineering companies to help them strengthen their quality systems, prepare for audits, and operate with confidence. And to meet growing demand, we are actively expanding our network of quality management contractors, internal auditors, and engineering consultants.

If you’re an experienced quality engineer, ISO auditor, or manufacturing consultant looking for meaningful contract work this could be the opportunity for you.

The Opportunity: Real Work That Makes an Impact

Working with AQC Global is not about sitting behind a desk reviewing documents all day.

Our contractors are embedded in real manufacturing environments, helping companies solve real problems.

Typical engagements include:

  • Performing internal audits (ISO 9001, AS9100, IATF 16949, ISO 13485)

  • Supporting audit readiness and certification preparation

  • Conducting gap assessments and compliance reviews

  • Training leadership teams and shop-floor employees

  • Reviewing and improving QMS documentation

  • Supporting corrective actions and continuous improvement initiatives

  • Assisting with supplier quality and process control

This is hands-on, high-impact work where your experience directly improves how companies operate.

  • Internal auditing and lead auditing

  • Manufacturing or machining operations

Travel Opportunities and Flexible Work

Many AQC Global projects involve travel to manufacturing facilities, giving contractors the opportunity to work in a variety of environments.

Assignments may include:

  • Short-term internal audit visits

  • Multi-day training engagements

  • Ongoing support for certification readiness

  • Repeat visits for continuous improvement projects

For those who enjoy seeing different operations and industries, this work provides constant variety.

We also work with contractors who prefer local engagements, allowing you to support businesses in your own city or region.

Unlike traditional in-house roles, working with AQC Global offers:

Variety of Projects

You’ll work with multiple clients across industries — no two assignments are the same.

  • Communicate findings clearly and professionally

  • Work with both leadership and shop-floor teams

  • Translate standards into practical actions

  • Identify risks and improvement opportunities

  • ISO 9001 consultants

  • AS9100 auditors

  • IATF 16949 specialists

  • ISO 13485 quality experts

  • Internal audit consultants

This role is a great fit if you are:

  • An experienced quality manager or engineer

  • A certified or experienced internal auditor or lead auditor

  • A professional looking to transition into consulting or contract work
