Who are LRQA?

LRQA stands for dedication to clients, market first, and strong expertise in risk management. We have grown to become a leading global assurance provider, bringing together certification, customised assurance, cybersecurity, inspection and training. While we are proud of our heritage, it is who we are today that really matters, because that’s what shapes who we and our clients can become tomorrow. By staying true to our shared values and combining decades of collective experience, we support our clients in building a safer and more sustainable future.

What do we do?

We help our clients negotiate a rapidly changing world, by working with them to manage and mitigate the risks they face. We serve a wide variety of industries, from food, beverage and hospitality to automotive, aerospace and transportation. From independent third-party auditing, certification and training to consultancy services, to real- time assurance technology, to data-driven supply chain transformation: our innovative end-to- end solutions help our clients shape their own future, rather than letting it shape them. LRQA currently operates across 51 countries, has more than 2,500 colleagues, generates £315m in revenue, and supports more than 60,000 clients across a diverse range of sectors and markets.

The next chapter for LRQA

The future of business assurance is exciting and rapidly changing. New challenges and opportunities arise all the time. We’re adapt to these challenges by expanding our portfolio of services and aiming to become the leading digitally enabled assurance provider.

In November 2021, Goldman Sachs Asset Management acquired the LRQA business from Lloyd’s Register Group, of which it had previously been a part. Becoming an independent business accelerates our ambition to realise a vision. We will now be able to:

• Invest in customer excellence.

• Build on strong foundations to lead the digital transformation of assurance.

• Invest to enhance our products and services.

• Accelerate the growth of the business and deliver on our sustainability strategy.

With solid expertise and heritage in our sector, combined with well-timed accelerated investment and a leadership team that is fully committed to delivering our vision, LRQA’s next chapter is set to be an exciting, transformational period of growth. We’re well placed to build on everything we’ve done and further our ambitions for the future. At such an exciting time key talent is critical, and this job is a great opportunity to become part of our next chapter.
