ISO 9001 lead auditor as Full time career India

[anandbchavan]

Hi,

I am a Quality professional having work experience around 13yrs. I had worked closely on ISO 9001 certification/External Audits/NCR Closer etc as a MR for my organization.

Now i want to look forward (after 2yrs) career in ISO 9001 Auditing with any of Certification bodies/big organization in future, so want to plan accordingly. Currently i have only a Certificate of Internal auditor for ISO 9001-2015 apart from this i know I must need to qualify and certified as Lead auditor to be an Lead Auditor.

So please guide me what else i need to do, be an good lead auditor and having successful career in QMS.

Regards
Anand
