Job Description

At Boeing, we innovate and collaborate to make the world a better place. From the seabed to outer space, you can contribute to work that matters with a company where diversity, equity and inclusion are shared values. We’re committed to fostering an environment for every teammate that’s welcoming, respectful and inclusive, with great opportunity for professional growth. Find your future with us.

BDUK is a subsidiary of the Boeing Company and currently employs over 1,800 people in the UK. BDUK is responsible for delivering several exciting contracts to our UK Defence customers including E-7 AEW&C, P-8A Maritime Patrol Aircraft, C4ISTAR Services, Through Life Support for the Chinook and Apache Fleets, Logistic Information Services and Training Services. To provide continued support to the customer, we are looking for an Apache Operations Training Specialist to join the Operations team and coordinate both internal and external training requirements for

our Apache maintenance personnel.

Reporting directly to the Apache Operations Support Manager, the role will be based at Middle Wallop but will include supporting the training requirements of BDUK personnel at Wattisham flying Station. The role has two fundamental aspects, both of which are as important as each other. The first is to manage and maintain the wide range of authorisations and training qualifications held by maintenance personnel on behalf of Operations, and to arrange the necessary training with the relevant internal or external provider to ensure personnel remain compliant. The second is to deliver/manage a range of on-the-job training packages encompassing aircraft specific training and wider site-specific training.

While we work in agile, dynamic and customer focused operational environment, your wellbeing is important to us, and we strive to find a healthy life balance and ethical team culture with a strong emphasis on openness, inclusivity, collaboration, innovation, safety and first-time quality.

Responsibilities:

Examples of key tasks include:

• Proactively manage the maintenance authorisations for Apache Operations Personnel;
• arranging training and calling forward individuals to ensure individual authorisations remain
• extant.
• Arrange and coordinate external training providers when required.
• Be competent to deliver the required courses when required by the operations team.
• Provide/manage shop floor level on-the-job training for Apache Specific maintenance activities such as applying external power and/or hydraulics.

Qualifications:

Preferred Qualifications and experience:

• Experience in delivering aircraft maintenance training. Experience of the Apache aircraft in any technical capacity is desirable but not essential, as opportunities to gain experience can be offered.
• Excellent communication skills that provide the ability to engage effectively with personnel at all levels.
• Demonstrable ability to effectively and proactively manage their own workload.
• Proficient in the use of the Microsoft Office Suite.
• Candidates with an appropriate mix of formal qualifications and experience appropriate to the role will be considered.

Work Authorisation: This requisition is for a locally hired position in the UK. Candidates must have current legal authorisation to work immediately in the United Kingdom. Boeing will not attempt to obtain Immigration and labour sponsorship for any applicants.

Benefits and pay are determined at the local level and are not part of Boeing U.S. based payroll.

Security Clearance: This position requires the ability to obtain a UK security clearance (SC) for which UK residency is required. All information will be checked and verified.

Relocation: This position does not offer relocation. Candidates must live in the immediate area or relocate

at their own expense.
