Job Title : New Business Lead - Systems Engineer
Salary : up to GBP63,000 depending on experience
Dynamic (hybrid) working : 2 - 3 days per week on-site due to workload classification
An opportunity has arisen to join MBDA as a Lead Engineer in the New Business team supporting sales campaigns, leading the generation of technical engineering proposals, pre-contract technical studies and costed proposals. This role will provide a very diverse experience of winning business.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone with a systems engineering background wanting to build on their experience by being the Engineering focal point in a diverse customer focussed team to win business for MBDA.
This role is varied and emphasis will change to fit the needs of the projects and sales markets, which is ever increasing in scope and complexity. You will be the primary Engineering and Technical interface for both sales campaigns and product roadmap, managing and delivering any engineering activities or studies required during the exciting, dynamic pre-contract phases of the programme.
You will need to provide clear guidance and support for the proposals being developed, ensure stakeholders are kept informed and deliver on time, cost and quality. The role will involve working closely with Customer Sales, Commercial and Programme Engineering teams to ensure customer requirements are understood and actioned.

The role provides an outstanding opportunity to gain experience in winning new business, technical concept derivation and direct customer engagement. This role would offer a candidate with a systems engineering background the opportunity to broaden their experience
You will face frequent new challenges that'll require you to think on your feet and take a systematic approach in understanding, resolving and providing technical responses to maintain project pace.
It also gives you the chance to work autonomously in a constantly evolving and dynamic environment, challenging and testing the business around the assumptions and costs proposed, ensuring they are robust, coherent and justifiable.
It can be stepping-stone to more senior technical leadership roles as bids are won and architectures and solutions progress through into development.
Strong interpersonal and well-developed communication skills (written & verbal), both internally and working with the customer, with the ability to build relationships at all levels of the business
Ability to understand, scope and explain technical challenges and impacts derived from Customer needs and working with a broad range of engineering teams to ensure timely delivery of technical solutions, costed bids and supporting engineering activities.
Complementary experience and knowledge from the defence industry, broad engineering and/or export bidding activities.
Strong Technical Project Management and facilitation skills in order to manage interdependencies and differing priorities and needs between multi-functional teams, resolving and diffusing arising conflicts and providing direction for inter-related issues.
Passionate about winning new business, willing to work under pressure to meet demanding bid timescales and to travel if required.
Company Bonus: Bonus of up to 21% of base salary
Pension: maximum total (employer and employee) contribution of up to 14%
