* A collaborative approach and confidence working with a range of stakeholders
* A background in engineering, construction, or quality management with relevant qualifications (e.g., CQI, IRCA, NEBOSH or similar)
* Experience in secure or highly regulated environments is a plus but not essential
* Eligibility to obtain UK Government security clearance
