Our Client
Stellar Recruitment are proud to be assisting JASANZ with this key appointment.
Established by way of an international treaty between Australia and New Zealand in 1991, JASANZ provides internationally recognised accreditation services that give confidence to markets domestically and internationally that goods and services certified by accredited bodies meet established standards.
As an official accreditation body, JASANZ uses standards and technical experts to check and formally recognise that certification and inspection bodies are competent and reliable. Certification body activities include licensing products, auditing quality or environmental management systems, and issuing certificates of conformity. Inspection bodies undertake various types of professional inspections and issue inspection reports.
The system of accreditation provides for a consistent, robust, and reliable use of conformity assessment to international standards and norms. Using internationally recognised frameworks reduces regulatory costs, increases consistency and quality, and facilitates international trade.
JASANZ employees have the passion to make a difference, are driven to deliver the highest quality accreditation services, and thrive in an environment of positive change and continuous improvement.
