1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

My role is within Quality Assurance so I deal with ensuring that all products that leave the factory are up to standard and if there are any deviations, that they are tackled and corrected. I am responsible for 2 plants out of 4 plants.
