Do You Want to Become an Auditor: Best Practices
What This Webinar Covers:
Thinking about a career in third-party auditing? In this webinar, PJR’s Corporate Recruiter Ryan and Aerospace Program Manager Kim Wagner walk through the auditor opportunities available at Perry Johnson Registrars and what it takes to qualify. Kim breaks down the updated aerospace auditor requirements, and Ryan covers the qualifications for environmental, occupational health and safety, and quality management auditors, along with how PJR trains new auditors and what makes someone a strong fit for the role.
What You’ll Learn:
- Which standards PJR audits to, including AS9100, AS9110, AS9120, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, ISO 13485, ISO/IEC 27001, ISO/IEC 20000-1, IATF 16949, and ISO/IEC 42001
- The difference between Level 1 (lead) and Level 2 (team member) aerospace auditors, and the work experience, training, and audit days each requires
- What qualifies as experience at a major equipment manufacturer, integrator, aerospace, space and defense prime, or regulatory agency
- The work experience, education, and training needed to audit to ISO 14001 and ISO 45001, including the OSHA 30 requirement
- How PJR’s auditor training progresses from observation to supervised, team member, and acting lead audits
Key Takeaways:
- Aerospace auditor requirements recently changed, so check the current IAQG authentication requirements before applying
- Level 1 AS9100 auditors need five years of qualifying full-time, non-MRO experience within the past eight years, while Level 2 auditors need three years of related experience at any point in their career
- Once qualified for AS9100, auditors can expand into AS9110 and AS9120 with the right experience and training
- ISO 9001 qualification comes first, and EHS auditors then add ISO 14001 and ISO 45001
- If you have EHS or industry experience but haven’t audited before, PJR can train you
- Strong communication, attention to detail, good writing skills, professionalism, and the ability to travel are key to success as an auditor
