Operational planning , risk management and delivery under pressure
Technical aptitude (engineering, maintenance, comms, logistics, or equivalent)
Safety mindset and adherence to standards and process
Clear communication , stakeholder coordination and problem‑solving
Learning agility and a continuous improvement approach
Relevant qualifications and tickets (military or civilian) are welcome, but not mandatory for expressing interest.
What we offer

- Access to a supportive Armed Forces community (veterans, reservists and allies)
- Training and upskilling pathways aligned to your next career step
- Flexible/hybrid working where role allows
- Support for reservist commitments in line with company policy
- Competitive salary and benefits, with opportunities across the UK
Security & project requirements
- Some roles - particularly in Defence and regulated industries - may require Baseline Personnel Security Standard (BPSS) , SC or DV clearance. You’re encouraged to apply even if you don’t currently hold clearance ; we’ll guide suitable candidates through the process where required.
How to apply (EOI)
- Please submit either your CV or a short career summary, and answer the brief questions (as part of the application process) so we can route you to the best opportunities:
- No CV yet? That’s fine - share a short summary covering your interests and experience and we’ll take it from there.
- What happens next Our Talent Acquisition team reviews EOIs on a rolling basis. If your profile aligns with a current or upcoming opportunity, we’ll get in touch to discuss fit, next steps, and any preparation or support that could help you succeed. As this is an expression of interest, the right opportunity may not exist immediately, so you may not hear from us straight away - but your details will remain in our talent pipeline for future roles.
Inclusion matters
We’re an equal‑opportunities employer. We celebrate diverse experiences and are committed to creating an environment where everyone can thrive - veterans, reservists, military spouses/partners and those with caring responsibilities are especially encouraged to apply.
