  • Background in technical or engineering training environments
  • Experience training on mechanical systems or engineered products

Ideally you will also have experience in:

  • Aerospace or defence
  • Military or air force training environments
  • Manufacturing or complex engineering sectors

Please note: This role is not suited to candidates from IT, telecoms or purely corporate L&D backgrounds.

Why Apply?
  • Work on high-impact engineering systems
  • Lead a specialist and technically credible team
  • Deliver training used in real-world operational environments
  • Join a globally respected engineering organisation
What's On Offer
  • Excellent salary and benefits package
  • 9% non-contributory pension
  • Early finish on Fridays
  • Healthcare and structured development plan
  • 25 days holiday plus bank holidays
  • Option to purchase additional leave
