Rob Westwood, ISO consultant and founder of AlineX, providing expert support for ISO 9001, 14001, and 45001 certification

Hi, I'm Rob, founder of AlineX.

With over 10 years' experience across manufacturing, environmental management, quality systems and Health & Safety, I help businesses implement practical management systems that deliver real results. Before establishing AlineX, I held operational and leadership roles within industry before moving into third-party certification auditing, giving me a unique perspective on what works in the real world and what certification bodies actually expect to see.

Today, I support organisations across the UK with ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 implementation, internal auditing, gap analysis and ongoing compliance support. Having worked as both a consultant and Certification Auditor, I've sat on both sides of the audit table and understand the challenges businesses face when trying to balance compliance with day-to-day operations.

My focus has never been on creating unnecessary paperwork. Instead, I work with businesses to build management systems that improve performance, reduce risk and support long-term growth whilst remaining practical and easy to maintain.
