Permanent | Flexible working options | Multiple UK locations
Shape the future of submarine safety
This is a unique opportunity to apply your submarine experience in a role that blends technical expertise with meaningful impact. Working in partnership with a respected engineering consultancy, you’ll help deliver safety solutions that support the UK submarine community and contribute to a safer, more sustainable future.

Offices are located in Bath, Bristol, Fareham, Glasgow, Plymouth, Weymouth, London and Teddington, with hybrid working available. Occasional travel to customer sites or meetings will be required.
Your contribution
You’ll provide technical safety support and subject matter advice across a range of submarine and underwater systems projects.
