Creating and updating maintenance documentation including repair and overhaul procedures and spare parts planning.
Managing obsolescence activities across materials and processes, standard mechanical components, seals and consumables.
Recording engineering changes and providing clear technical justification for all documentation updates.
Assessing product compliance and understanding the impact of obsolescence on existing qualification status.
Identifying and documenting any qualification or verification testing required.

The opportunity to support a long-term UK defence engineering programme.
A technically varied role with responsibility across engineering, documentation and customer engagement.
The chance to contribute to the ongoing support of a critical UK MOD product throughout its next phase of operational life.If you are an experienced Project/Mechanical Engineer looking for your next opportunity within a technically challenging defence engineering environment, I would be pleased to discuss the position with you.
