About the role

Onodrim is building Europe's largest defence and industrial platform. We acquire specialist manufacturers in critical defence and dual-use supply chains, then invest behind their growth with capital, technology and operating know-how.

Radio communications, radar, sensing and the RF hardware underneath them are one of the areas where Europe's capacity gap is widest and where we intend to build real depth. The Head of Communications, Radar and Sensing owns that business unit. You'll set the vision for what Onodrim should own and build in RF, decide which acquisitions, programmes and partnerships we pursue and which we pass on, and run the unit as it grows - from a handful of programmes today to a portfolio of companies, products and customers.

This is a role for someone who has spent a career in RF and has formed strong opinions from it. You'll need the technical depth to walk into a target company, understand what its engineers have actually built and what it would take to enhance it; the market understanding to know which capabilities European armed forces and primes will pay for over the next decade; and the commercial judgement to turn both into decisions with capital behind them.
