Undertaking a wide range of systems design and technical leadership tasks, ensuring a coherent design is maintained across the contributing engineering departments (hardware, firmware, software) that can be integrated, tested and qualified to demonstrate the effectiveness of the security solution. Liaising with manufacturing and support teams to ensure the confidentiality and integrity of the missile/weapon system is maintained through manufacture and in the various through life support scenarios that may be offered to a Customer. Ensuring the Need to Know principal is adhered to and sufficient controls are in place to manage the knowledge of the technical implementation, providing direction on the release of information to Suppliers and Customers, where required. Product Security Engineers are required to look at the design at multiple levels: from the Missile as a whole with its multitude of complex interfaces within a wider Weapon System, to the individual electronic components at a printed circuit card level. Such a breadth of influence over and interaction with the design affords the Product Security Engineer a rich and challenging working environment unparalleled elsewhere in the Systems Design Function. You will gain an intimate knowledge of the product functionality and interact with stakeholders across the business from the highly technical to the more commercial. A role in the Security Engineering Department is therefore dynamic and diverse in its activities and provides a real opportunity to be part of a technically complex and essential part of the product capability. What we're looking for from you: Able to listen to, evaluate and resolve technical issues in a manner that upholds MBDAs reputation with our Customer. Strong engineering skills where a background in Systems Engineering is essential and experience in electronics design and/or embedded software or firmware design is desirable. Knowledge of Product or Systems Security is desirable. DV cleared or willing and eligible to go through the DV clearance process. Our company: Peace is not a given, Freedom is not a given, Sovereignty is not a given MBDA is a leading defence organisation. We are proud of the role we play in supporting the Armed Forces who protect our nations. We partner with governments to work together towards a common goal, defending our freedom. We are proud of our employee-led networks, examples include: Gender Equality, Pride, Menopause Matters, Parents and Carers, Armed Forces, Ethnic Diversity, Neurodiversity, Disability and more We recognise that everyone is unique, and we encourage you to speak to us should you require any advice, support or adjustments throughout our recruitment process.

Day-to-Day Responsibilities Lead the production and technical review of Flood Risk Assessments and Surface Water Drainage Strategies, ensuring compliance with NPPF, TAN15 and/or NPF4 as appropriate. Interpret EA, NRW, SEPA, LLFA and third-party datasets to develop evidence-based flood risk conclusions and identify practical solutions for clients. Where appropriate, develop the technical case for revised flood zone designations through detailed modelling, topographic analysis and engagement with regulators. Support feasibility studies at the early stages of development, identifying constraints and the routes through them. Manage multiple concurrent projects to programme, budget and quality expectations. Develop and maintain client and stakeholder relationships as a trusted technical advisor. Mentor and review the work of junior consultants and graduates, supporting their technical development. Support business development through fee proposals, scope development and client presentations. Contribute to the continuous improvement of internal tools, templates and technical processes. About You They're looking for a consultant who combines technical depth with the commercial awareness to understand what the data means for a client's project and who's ready to take ownership of their own development rather than wait to be promoted. Essential A minimum of 6 years' UK consultancy experience in flood risk, with at least 1 year at senior level. Working knowledge of NPPF and associated planning practice guidance; familiarity with TAN15 and/or NPF4 is an advantage. Strong technical report writing clear, concise and well-reasoned. Confident interpretation of third-party datasets (EA Product 4/8, LLFA data, historical records) to derive design flood levels and inform planning decisions. BSc or higher in Geography, Environmental Science, Environmental Management, Civil Engineering or a closely related discipline. GIS proficiency (ArcGIS, QGIS or MapInfo).
