At Surya Foods, I lead quality assurance across snacks and traded goods. I successfully achieved an AA+ rating in an unannounced BRC audit with zero non-conformances—a key milestone. I ensure QMS and food safety compliance through rigorous adherence to HACCP, TACCP, and VACCP protocols. By implementing a robust yearly sampling plan and spearheading non-conformance management, I’ve elevated product quality metrics significantly. My work includes leading internal audits, monitoring day-to-day product results, and initiating corrective actions that have reduced defects by over 30%. I actively drive continuous improvement initiatives, which have optimized process flow and audit readiness across departments.

I coordinate daily quality documentation and GMP/HACCP training for dessert production. Leading startup checks and EHO compliance efforts, I’ve strengthened food safety culture across the plant. I validated metal detectors weekly and ensured external calibration, ensuring 100% audit readiness. My training sessions improved GMP compliance scores by 15% within six months. I liaise closely with management during weekly meetings to address issues and enhance performance standards.

At Amul, I supervised quality across milk, yogurt, and ice cream lines, introducing Visual SOPs that cut inspection time by 25%. I streamlined underweight issue resolution by setting machine tolerance levels, boosting packing accuracy. I led monthly internal and GMP audits and collaborated with cross-functional teams to improve QMS implementation. I also oversaw SAP entries and supported strategic QA planning. My efforts directly contributed to enhanced product consistency and reduced customer complaints by 40%.

I led process improvement for Greek yogurt and ice cream, enhancing product yield and reducing spoilage by 20%. I improved pasteurization efficiency, upgraded packaging material, and provided QA/production staff training. I also collaborated with R&D to launch new dairy products, validating processes through FSSAI compliance. My role involved costing analysis, regulatory inspections, and liaising with suppliers, ensuring zero product recalls during my tenure.

I led QMS alignment across divisions at Almarai, supporting sales through consistent quality service. By implementing HACCP across the sales region, I reduced food safety incidents by 35%. I developed and executed a regional audit plan and conducted risk assessments that minimized safety threats. I played a critical role in ensuring high standards of health and safety, conducting training and internal audits, and managing key regulatory updates across regions.
