Management representative and ISO 9001:2015

Answer:

ISO 9001:2015 no longer considers mandatory the appointment of a Management Representative (MR). According to clause 5.1.1 top management is now responsible for what was the MR role. Nevertheless, an organization can keep that role working in close relationship and under the supervision of top management. If the role of MR exists it should have a Job Description.
