• Experience working within or alongside Engineering, R&D, Project Management, Supply Chain, Procurement, or Cost and Value Engineering teams in a complex technical environment.
• Strong project management skills with the ability to coordinate cross-functional activities and take ownership of cost optimisation or product development initiatives.
• Technical understanding of gas turbines, rotating equipment, aerospace, power generation, or similarly complex engineered products would be highly advantageous.
• Excellent communication, influencing, and stakeholder management skills, including confidence working with suppliers, internal customers, and senior management.
• A curious, proactive, and commercially minded approach, with the ability to learn quickly, prioritise effectively, deliver results, and travel occasionally, typically two to five business trips per year.
