You will be responsible for leading a diverse group of commissioning engineers and ensuring safe, compliant, and efficient delivery of complex nuclear test activities. This role provides the opportunity to influence commissioning strategy, strengthen delivery capability, and embed LFE across a major defence programme that forms part of a national endeavour. Relocation support packages are available across all Submarines roles, subject to meeting eligibility criteria.
