The opportunity:
The mission of Environmental Engineering and Facilities (EE&F) is:
Experience a wide variety of challenging technical projects that also includes hands on work where you get a chance to influence real world engineering decisions, strategies, and designs from an environmental test perspective. The scheme is split into four six month placements, with three placements within EE&F and one externally to EE&F of your choice within MBDA. Within EE&F, you will experience all three domains with a position in the Test Team, the Trials and Analysis Team (T&A), and the Projects Team. You'll work on a range of projects at different stages of the product development cycle, as well as in service support.
Each EE&F domain will enable you to experience and gain unique technical and soft skills and collaborate with partners from across MBDA and the customer community. Examples include hands-on mechanical and climatic testing experience in Test, experiencing environmental data gathering trials on various on site and external opportunities in T&A, and managing technical delivery of challenging small to medium sized work packages in the Projects team. With mentorship, you will be given responsibility for delivering tasks of real substance from the beginning of the programme, with the aim that through the programme, you'll become an independent, problem solving and trusted engineer in any domain you choose to specialise in.
You'll operate in a challenging, encouraging and technically exciting working environment, surrounded by a great support network within the department, experienced in managing early careers and getting the best out of each graduate and individuals. Regular feedback and support through regular reviews will help you with your personal development, with a focus on formal training as part of this.
In addition, you have the opportunity to work towards a Chartership through MBDA's accredited schemes with the Institute of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE) or Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS). A Chartered mentor will aid you throughout this process.
