Overview
Quality Control Coordinator Jobs in Marietta, GA at ELRO Sign Company
Role: Production Assistant / Quality Control Coordinator (Full-Time, Non-Exempt)
Location: Marietta, GA
Elro is a full-service signage company based in Marietta, GA. We serve clients across various industries handling everything from custom one-off fabrications to national multi-site rollout programs. Our reputation is built on craftsmanship, accountability, and getting the details right from the shop floor through final installation.
The Production Assistant / Quality Control Coordinator is the quality checkpoint between our shop floor and the client. This role is responsible for inspecting completed signage against approved artwork, shop drawings, and project specifications; maintaining accurate job tracking and documentation; and coordinating the flow of jobs from production through shipping. Day-to-day, this position also provides hands-on administrative support to keep production moving — flagging missing information, maintaining job status accuracy, and ensuring nothing slips through the cracks. This is a detail-driven role for someone who takes ownership, communicates clearly, and holds the line on quality even when schedules are tight.
If you are detail-oriented, thrive in a fast-paced production environment, and take pride in putting out quality work — we want to hear from you.
