      Head Of Quality

      As the leading specialist ingredient supplier to the Food Supplement industry in the UK, CCL has had to build the supporting framework of a QMS and invest the required resource to do so, in a challenging environment. CCL handles and trades in many ingredients, primarily food, vitamins, minerals and herbal products. My role at CCL was to grow the Quality team, to include a range of talent from Apprentices to Doctors; to establish the QMS, H&S and Environmental processes and responsibilities and most importantly to affect the culture required to sustain them. Towards the end of 2015 I completed the preparation and and first certification audit to the BRCGS Food standard. Other certifications that I facilitated for CCL include ISO 22000:2005 and ISO 14001:2004. Show less

      We have been successfully providing specialist consultancy services since 2015, under the umbrella of STC (Sirius Training & Certifications Ltd.) a training provider and certification body), to help these industries reach their goals. QTC now stands strong as a separate legal entity, as a subsidiary of STC, so that our consultancy services are completely independent of the STC certification activities. This is to ensure the integrity of audits through STC. Our customers trust us to deliver results, and this has led to repeat business and excellent reviews.Our team of experts have extensive experience in various food product categories as well as High risk and High care requirements, since we have worked for certificated sites, and we’re experienced trainers and auditors also! We know and are specialists in, the various applicable standards, so we understand the importance of meeting BRCGS and GFSI product safety requirements. We use our knowledge and expertise to help our customers improve their operations and achieve their goals. Show less
