Description du poste

This post is based in Brussels, Belgium, on site. Relocation support is available.

A multinational defence organisation is modernising its nuclear consultation, command and control capability — the biggest programme in its common-funded portfolio, with delivery spread across host nations and several implementing entities. This post sits on site in Brussels and keeps that orchestration moving, with a strong security thread running through all of it.

What you would be doing

• Working with headquarters staff, agencies, stakeholders and end users to develop security plans and monitor their implementation across the project groups.
• Making sure those plans are understood and complied with by everyone who has to live with them.
• Travelling frequently to host nation sites to coordinate communications and infrastructure progress, run site surveys and give technical advice — in excess of eighty travel days a year.
• Supporting the programme director on site with stakeholder engagement and communication at political, operational and tactical levels.
• Helping identify requirements, policy developments and engineering publication reviews relevant to the programme.
• Working with the security, policy and operations branches across the organisation so the programme stays aligned with alliance practice.
• Reviewing and updating security policy, documentation and classification guides, and authoring the relevant sections of capability programme plans.
• Supporting the management of classified material.
• Developing and delivering presentations and training on security procedures.
• Keeping every work strand linked to the rest of the office and to the other capability teams.

What you would bring

• A bachelor degree or higher.
• Programme or project management experience, ideally under a common-funded capability delivery governance model or its national equivalent.
• Experience of technical communications or physical infrastructure projects for sensitive compartmented information facilities, delivered in secure environments.
• At least three of the last ten years in stakeholder management and coordination, aligning different organisations behind a common strategic goal.
• Willingness to travel well beyond the usual — this post is on the road a great deal.
• Fluent professional English.

This is a long engagement that renews year on year, not a short project.
