* Support gate reviews and process validation, making sure all products meet the highest standards.

* Confidence in reading engineering electrical and mechanical drawings and working with manufacturing processes.
* Experience with NATO standards (AQAP2105/2110) and quality management systems.
* A proactive, hands-on approach with strong communication and leadership skills.
* Sole British citizenship with a valid British passport ("UK Eyes Only") and the ability to obtain SC level security clearance.
You Can Expect From Us
* Challenging and exciting projects.
* A work environment where we understand that not everyone has the same expectations about their jobs, careers and work-life balance and we are happy to discuss flexibility requirements.
