This ensures continued compliance with required regulations, international standards and best practices. Furthermore, you provide support with the management non-conformities and customer complaints within our company, and you assist the Quality Manager during regulatory audits, internal audits and customer visits. Standing still means going backwards and that is why you have a proactive approach and encourage continuous improvement.
