About the role
One of our aerospace clients is seeking a Design Structures Authoriser to join a dynamic team dedicated to delivering high-quality design support tailored to the needs of the Broughton Plant. The team's mission is to provide engineering solutions across all areas of Broughton Plant Manufacturing, ensuring the achievement of business objectives and maintaining product integrity. The team collaborates closely with Manufacturing Engineering colleagues to foster a true Manufacturing Engineering and Engineering Together (MEET) ethos.
What will you be doing?
In this role, you will lead, guide, approve, and authorise design solutions for a variety of tasks, including Major/Minor Design Modifications and Design Query Notes. You will provide technical leadership and continuous mentoring to the engineering team, assisting in the development of team members, identifying skill gaps, and driving plans to close these gaps. Ensuring that design standards and requirements are met, you will liaise with other functions and projects to guarantee fully integrated design solutions. You will also operate as a design authorisation signatory and support continuous improvement initiatives to increase team efficiency through methods, processes, and other capability improvements. Building and maintaining strong relationships with wider stakeholders, such as CVE, the Chief Engineer, Configuration Management, and the Local Programmes Team, is essential to enable satisfactory design solutions and the implementation of airworthiness type certification and configuration management on the aircraft.
What are we looking for in you?
The ideal candidate will be motivated and self-driven, capable of working autonomously when required, while also being a strong team player. You should be able to deliver reliably on time, cost, and quality, while embracing change and challenge when appropriate. With an anticipation mindset, you will identify risks and opportunities and manage them appropriately. You should be able to understand and synthesise multiple complex activities, simplifying and communicating them clearly and on a timely basis to all stakeholders as needed. An innovative mindset and a degree of curiosity to explore new or alternative ideas and approaches are essential. Previous experience within the aerospace industry is required, along with an industry-recognised design signatory delegation, such as Design Approval or Design Authorisation.
