The company have a number of awards, most recently been named as an Award winner (Gold Award) in MoD Defence Employer Recognition Scheme! The Senior Chief Engineer is expected to be or to become the definitive technical expert for UK products, understanding all aspects of product design and able to make key decisions concerning new designs and design updates. They may also act as the delegated signatory for company, certifying that the designs continue to be seaworthy, safe and fully compliant to all relevant UK & international regulations. Responsibilities include: To provide inputs, as required, into Bids and Proposals, including, where appropriate, planning the technical programme of work in conjunction with project management, providing input to technical proposals, engineering estimates and work packages. Note that the Capability and Product teams will remain the primary interface to the customer for business development and bid purposes, but the Senior Chief Engineer will want to ensure that different products are using common and modular architectures and components to maximise re-use, so will be consulted on system architectures and delivery methodology. To provide technical leadership into projects and product teams as needed, such that the aims of the business to develop strong future product lines whilst maintaining On-Time Delivery (OTD) of contracted work at the target levels for the business are fully met.

This is a strategic and senior hire for the business, where the senior chief engineer will be leading a team of three chief engineers, across three major business streams. This is a fantastic opportunity for an individual to join a thriving company and have the ability to influence. Experience needed: Ideally qualified to degree-level or equivalent experience in a Physics or Engineering based subject, such as; Electronics, Hardware, Computer Science, Software or Systems Engineering etc. Must be able to influence and lead various stakeholders and teams. Experience within Design Authority, understanding all aspects of product design and able to make key decisions concerning new designs and design updates Technically competent in the tools and technologies used by the team (requirements management tools such as DOORS or Jama, CAD tools (with sufficient familiarity to enable review), PLM tools such as Windchill etc.), to allow review/assist with technical work where needed. Help deliver the Business' strategic plans for long term growth. Customer-facing, particularly to represent the customer within the business on projects such that the customer needs with regard to security, reliability and supportability are appropriately prioritized.
