The Opportunity Our role within MBDA is unique - we support the development and delivery of the whole Weapon System; our mission is to understand everything that the user needs! Every single system that MBDA delivers, from Meteor to Sea Viper, requires support to ensure that the Missile and surrounding systems remain operational for many years to come. CSS are the team at MBDA that make this happen; you will be a part of the team that makes this happen. Your placement could be at any point in the CADMID cycle; for example, you could be working on a current development programme influencing the design of the System to ensure that it is supportable from the very first delivery. Or you could be resolving technical queries with the Design Team. Throughout the year-long placement, you will gain hands-on technical experience, bridging the gap between classroom learning and practical application in the defence sector. Throughout all of this we'll make sure you receive structured training and support relevant for the role. This placement is like no other - where else could you go from assisting in a workshop one week to assisting with repair activities on a ship the next? What will you gain? Throughout the year-long placement, you will learn how MBDA designs our systems to be supportable, and then how we ensure they stay supported whilst In-Service. You will gain experience as a member of the teams that are delivering on our contractual commitments, carrying out real world engineering support analysis and investigations to ensure our products can be relied upon for decades. Work on a mix of design, development, troubleshooting, and repair tasks, gaining practical experience on a live Project with real impact across the entire product lifecycle. You will be analysing operational scenarios to ensure our Systems can be used in the 'real world' and not just in models or laboratories. This goes beyond the analysis of technical documentation and into direct contact with the Armed Forces to reflect their experiences back into our Products. You will develop essential engineering skills as well as a broad understanding of how MBDA interacts with our customers. CSS excels in being able to provide placements that encompass both technical engineering as well as the opportunity to learn how a global player in the Defence Industry operates. CSS is one of the few departments within MBDA that communicates at all levels within the business, as well as externally to all of our Customers. This unique opportunity will enhance your communication skills; requiring you to tailor your conversations based on your audience and your objective. What we're looking for from you Working towards a degree in an Engineering discipline. A good understanding of engineering principles and the ability to communicate them clearly with both technical and non-technical people 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...
