Lead engineering that protects lives and shapes the future

At Babcock, we’re working to create a safe and secure world, together. If you join us, you can play your part as a Project Engineering Manager at our Babcock Vehicle Engineering site in Walsall, West Midlands.

The role

As a Project Engineering Manager, you’ll have a role that’s out of the ordinary. You will lead the multi‑disciplinary technical design and delivery of complex engineering projects across their full lifecycle, from concept through to in‑service support and disposal.

This is a rare opportunity to combine hands‑on engineering expertise with people leadership. You will manage and develop a team of engineers, act as the technical authority for your projects, and collaborate closely with internal stakeholders and external partners.

Day‑to‑day you’ll be required to:
Leading and managing the engineering function across allocated projects, ensuring delivery to time, cost and quality
Acting as the technical point of contact for internal teams, customers and suppliers
Ensuring engineering compliance with legal, regulatory and safety requirements
Coaching, mentoring and developing engineers to build capability and performance
Identifying and managing technical risks, dependencies and design trade‑offs

The role is based onsite at Walsall, and the set working times are Monday to Friday, 39 hours per week.

Problem-solving and root cause analysis (8D, A3, Ishikawa, 5-Why)
Knowledge of automotive systems (powertrain, chassis, body, E/E, ADAS, thermal, or interiors)
Knowledge of CAD/CAE tools and engineering documentation
