    The Role

    Managing the successful delivery of technically complex projects
    Investigating and researching new technologies, processes and products

    Contributing to the safe running of the workshop and labs
    Supporting Steer in sales and client engagement activities

    Comfortable with challenges and able to express yourself constructively when challenged
    Positive and proactive in your approach to achieving solutions, viewing being wrong as an opportunity to advance your knowledge

    Benefits

    ~ A competitive salary that is commensurate with your experience and expertise
    ~ Clear career progression and opportunities for development
    ~25 days of holiday entitlement per year, plus 8 bank holidays
