Why Apply?

This is an excellent opportunity for a technically capable individual looking for a varied, hands-on role with opportunities to travel internationally and work on specialist marine systems.

Our client is particularly keen to hear from ex-military personnel - however, all suitably qualified candidates will be given due consideration.
