Governance, Compliance & Risk

Ensure all commercial activity complies with applicable UK and international regulations, including export control, competition law, and customer‑specific compliance requirements.
Lead the identification and mitigation of commercial risk, including contractual, financial, and geopolitical exposure.

Cross‑Functional Collaboration

Work closely with Engineering, Operations, Supply Chain, Quality, and Finance to ensure commercial strategies are fully aligned with delivery capability.
Support investment decisions, make‑or‑buy strategies, and new product introductions from a commercial perspective.
Any other duties deemed suitable by your line manager and as reasonably required by the business.
