Careers at Bellroy
Product Quality Technologist

IN A NUTSHELL

Since we launched with a range of six wallets 13+ years ago, we now release about 50 new products a year (give or take). We’re growing, and our Production team, (key to getting all of these products and those yet to come, out into the world) is searching for a quality specialist to ensure our customers receive products they love and will continue to use for a long time.

Reporting to our Production and Quality Assurance Manager, you’ll be responsible for running our quality control and assurance process. You will oversee the inspection of batches at different stages of pre-production to bulk production, identifying quality issues and reviewing quality reports from both internal and external sources. You will communicate these findings with our overseas manufacturers and internal product development team to mitigate potential issues while maintaining QC documentation and quality data to ensure consistency throughout the product life cycle. Things change quickly and you’ll also be expected to improve processes and support our production team to develop and implement quality systems along the way.

Bring us your sharp eye for detail, passion for quality control and desire for continuous improvement. In return, we’ll provide you with quality products to work with, a great team to work alongside and impactful work.

YOU COULD BE THE ONE IF YOU HAVE…

  • 3+ years experience in a product development or quality control role (soft goods, accessories and apparel industry experience preferred)
  • Experience working with pre-production samples and bulk sample approval processes upholding quality standards using QC manuals
  • Experience with quality control methods with an understanding of industry standards, manufacturing processes and product timelines
  • Strong Excel/Google sheet and reporting skills
  • Exceptional time management and strong attention to detail
  • Excellent communication and problem-solving skills
  • An uncanny ability to pick up potential issues or inconsistencies before they become a problem
  • The desire to work collaboratively in a team within a fast-paced, agile environment

IF YOU WERE HERE LAST MONTH, HERE ARE SOME THINGS YOU MIGHT HAVE DONE...

  • Examined the initial mass production samples alongside the supplier's final inspection and quality report to identify any disparities or areas requiring improvement according to the Production & Quality Handbook
  • Noticed some webbing issues and held discussions with suppliers regarding the discrepancies
  • Collaborated with suppliers to implement a corrective action plan specifically targeting the webbing issues for mass production
  • Oversaw the approval process for bulk samples, maintaining precise QC documentation and analysed the results to gain insights into mass production quality standards
  • Worked with our product developer to discuss potential quality issues in a new product and tweaked a process to facilitate quicker identification of such issues for future iterations
  • Assessed the upcoming production schedule, prioritising styles and colours for QC checks. Ensured alignment with both product quality performance objectives and the timeline for launching new products
  • Implemented and managed quality control processes, collaborating with suppliers and the quality audit team to ensure that final inspections meet or exceed established quality standards
  • Examined weekly return reports to identify recurring issues requiring further investigation
  • Worked closely with the customer experience team to compile and analyse customer feedback, informing ongoing quality improvement efforts.

NOTRE MISSION

Imaginer de meilleurs moyens de transporter vos affaires.
Utiliser notre influence pour la bonne cause.
Aider le monde et notre équipe à s'épanouir.

Nos espaces

Bellroy' est un mélange de nos origines – Bells Beach et Fitzroy. Bells Beach apporte un côté décontracté alors que Fitzroy apporte un style urbain et créatif. La ville et la mer ; inspiration et aventure. Ensemble, ils créent le parfait équilibre.

Bells Beach

Notre QG à la plage se trouve juste derrière une grande dune de sable qui surplombe les spots de surf les plus réputés d'Australie. C'est là, dans le Maker Lab, que nos Product Designers innovent et que notre équipe commerciale passe la journée sur Skype en consommant une quantité copieuse de café. L'ambiance est plus tranquille ici que chez nos voisins de Fitzroy et nous aimons nous concentrer sur notre processus créatif. Nous allons au café d’à côté dès que nous avons une petite faim ou que nous voulons espionner les surfeurs. Parfait pour se ressourcer en respirant un peu d'air (salé) frais.

Fitzroy

Notre espace Fitzroy se trouve au cœur de Melbourne, où nos équipes créatives, marketing, ingénierie et opérations travaillent sur les campagnes et l'expédition sécurisée des produits Bellroy dans le monde entier. En sortant, vous découvrirez des rues animées (et le meilleur restaurant de ramen à cette extrémité de Tokyo).

A distance

En plus de nos deux sièges sociaux nous avons une équipe qui travaille à distance - de l'Australie occidentale à des régions de l'Asie, aux États-Unis, à l'Europe. Être global est au coeur de Bellroy car cela nous maintient connectés et nous permet d'envisager la vie sous plusieurs regards. Si vous disposez d'une connection internet et si vous avez de la flexibilité pour faire partie d'une équipe que vous ne verrez pas tous les jours, vous pouvez envisager de joindre notre grandissante toile globale.

Our team image

Notre équipe
