Commercial & Contracts Investigating Lead. 37 Hours a week Hybrid/Remote there could be occasions when you will required to attend meetings at Dorset Council offices in Dorchester. 3 months 500 a day Outside IR35 Do you have local authority or public sector experience? Commercial knowledge? Auditing? Demonstrate navigating contracts?. Worked with the SLT to report?. Support and undertake aspects of the following. The Commission and Procurement Programme. also identified that to scale up a programme of this nature would require specialist expertise which would not ordinarily be found within an organisation such as a council as there would be little need for these skill in the longer-term service delivery. In addition, the successful candidate has over the years removed those roles which would be able to support such as cost analysts and commercial quality assurance leads. Whilst it is evident that some teams and services could undertake/support the 3rd Party Spend activity it was highly likely that resources would not be able to be made available. Furthermore, as these investigations are likely to involve senior members of staff including directors and may require direct challenge and scrutiny of them, it would be unfair to place a permanent employee, who is likely to be a lower grade than those being interrogated, in such a position. The CPP Programme Manager was tasked with defining a programme of works and to develop a resource and cost profile in support of these works. It was also noted that this project is time constrained . Investigations, analysis, and the production of a detailed list of opportunities and the activity to secure them within this financial year needs to be completed no later than early/mid December 2025. If this is not achieved it is possible that the in-year savings target would be reduced or worse, not met.

This is under the control of the Product Support Manager, who is supported by a range of skills including Field Service Engineers, trainers, fleet planners, asset managers and support engineers. On this apprenticeship you'll complete rotational placements in Supportability Engineering In-Service Teams Support Services Mechanical / Electronic Engineering Human Factors Training and Field Support Engineering Technical Publications Environmental Engineering Environmental Engineering & Facilities (EE&F) provide MBDA with the ability to simulate real world mechanical and climatic environments (through vibration, shock, temperature, etc.). Our Environmental Engineers provide expertise throughout the product lifecycle and generate evidence to demonstrate that our products are safe, suitable for service and meet our customer's expectations. Environmental Engineering Apprentices work with our experienced professionals and world leading technical specialists in their field, to test our products and ensure that they can withstand the environments for where they will be used. MBDA exports products across the globe and the role of this team is pivotal to ensure that our systems can withstand these conditions and operate as needed, without fault or delay. Witness, control and apply extreme climatic and mechanical environments, from simulating the extreme cold of artic conditions to the incredible temperatures induced by supersonic flight. From combined complex low pressure, high humidity and low temperature environments to multiple system 3D vibration simulation. You'll see all aspects of Engineering from a mechanical perspective. Starting on more basic tasks, as you increase in confidence and your studies progress you'll get involved in more projects in an increasingly autonomous environment - but always with the support and guidance from world leading technical specialists in that area. Placements within Environmental Engineering include: Mechanical and Climatic Test Structural test Facility maintenance Trials & Data Analysis Mechanical & Climatic Project Through your placements you'll benefit from the breadth and depth of a diverse function - from Theory and Design, to Analysis and Application - you'll get to experience some incredibly niche areas!

This is a truly outstanding chance to be hands on with advanced and sophisticated test hardware and equipment. Mechanical Engineering You'll gain vast experience of a product lifecycle which will provide the foundations on which to build the expertise required to design, make, and test the next generation of missile system hardware. This will cover a variety of Mechanical Engineering, including computer aided concept design, simulation and modelling to hands on testing, manufacture and assembly. The apprenticeship is designed to educate and develop engineering foundations from which to grow practical and academic skills. As experience increases following training on engineering principles and some basic project work, apprentices can expect to tackle more complex projects in an increasingly autonomous environment. Typical placements in this stream can include: Mechanical Design Mechanical Future Concepts Actuation Systems Mechanical Analysis Materials and Processes Environmental Engineering As a Mechanical Engineering apprentice you can expect to gauge an understanding of material properties and how to utilise their unique characteristics in Engineering design they will also learn how to use industry standard design tools such as Creo Parametric as well as simulation and modelling packages: Altair, HyperMesh, and Ansys. This role would suit someone with a curiosity in hands on Engineering coupled with a creative and innovative approach to problem solving and well-grounded understanding in mathematics and applied sciences.
