Quality Assurance Engineer Jobs in Illinois

A Quality Consultant is a specialized professional who works within the quality control industry to ensure that a business' products, services, and internal processes meet established standards of quality. They are primarily responsible for evaluating and auditing an organization's processes, providing guidance and recommendations for improvement, assessing risks, and driving the implementation of quality management systems. They also perform training and development for the company's employees to understand and comply with quality standards. These consultants may also be involved in developing, implementing, and reviewing quality control policies and procedures.

Key skills for a Quality Consultant include analytical thinking, excellent communication and interpersonal skills, problem-solving abilities, and profound knowledge of quality control standards and procedures. They should also have a comprehensive understanding of project management and statistical analysis techniques. Quality Consultants should ideally possess certifications such as Certified Quality Engineer (CQE), Certified Manager of Quality (CMQ), or Certified Six Sigma Black Belt (CSSBB). Prior to becoming a Quality Consultant, individuals might have roles such as a Quality Control Analyst, Quality Assurance Specialist, or Quality Manager in manufacturing, engineering, or other industries where quality control is vital.
