Reading, Reading, United Kingdom AWE Full time
What if you could work with remarkable people on extraordinary things? What if the end result was something a little bit special? What if your role was mission critical?

For nearly 70 years, AWE has been at the forefront of nuclear weapons research and development.

We have a critical mission:
to provide the warheads for the UK's ultimate deterrent - Trident. We also use our unique skills to provide wider UK government with counter-terrorism and nuclear threat reduction solutions.

It takes a special sort of person to work at AWE. What if that person was you?

Information Services and Security have a vital role to play in a crucial national mission. We're here to enable the organisation to deliver through the use of technology.

As AWE transforms itself to meet the needs of the UK's next-generation nuclear deterrent, we need to adapt to deliver data-driven decision making, flexible and future-proofed IT services, adaptable cyber security, support to a multi-billion Pound building programme, and many more.

The scale might be daunting to some, but you'll find it stimulating.

We've got a long journey that we've only just started and we're looking for motivated people who can take us in the right direction.

Your role will contribute directly to that shared mission.

We won't deceive you, in some areas we're starting from a low base, but within ten years this organisation will look very different, and you can help make that happen.

This is a role where you'll contribute to a legacy of national security for decades to come. So come and join us.

An exciting opportunity is available for an Information Manager to join the Information and Knowledge Management team.

The Team delivers management of information and records on behalf of the business to meet legal, regulatory and contractual requirements and supports the administration of key information and records repositories, both physical and digital.


The post holder will provide day-to-day support on all aspects of information management, promoting best practice, delivering specialist services, making the best use of new technologies and responding to the changing needs of the organisation.

Experience of knowledge and information management is desirable but not essential as training and development will be provided.
