Thanks for checking out our job opening; we are excited that YOU are interested in learning more about NCC Group.

We are on a mission to make society a safer and more secure place. Our people are the ones who make that mission possible; a global community of talented individuals working together towards a safer future. We aim to create an environment where everyone can reach their full potential.

We work together, we are brilliantly creative, we embrace difference, and we want you to help us in our mission, as a consultant.

We recently completed the exciting acquisition of Adelard. Together, the two businesses offer a rich, complementary set of services to customers globally.

Why Adelard?

Adelard is part of the NCC Group. We exist to provide independent and technically sound advice on how to engineer and assure the trustworthiness of computer-based systems. We work in the nuclear, medical, defence, finance, air traffic control and rail sectors and in critical infrastructure protection.

Our team supports the delivery of critical projects. Our clients range from large multinationals to start-ups as well as government agencies and other leading national and international infrastructure providers.

The role

The role will include taking a key role in projects across the following areas:

  • Software, HDL and system analysis, modelling: We analyse and model software-based and FPGA-based systems using various techniques. The analysis may be based on design documentation as well as on the source code. We apply modern analysis techniques to real world software systems. The techniques include formal methods, model checking, static analysis (control and data flow, semantic analysis, integrity and concurrency analysis) as well as statistical analysis of field data and a variety of testing techniques. The work involves both the engineering of tools as well as their application.
  • Safety and security assessment: We contribute to the assurance of our clients’ projects by assisting with hazard analysis, providing independent advice, and reviewing their safety and security cases. We assess the behaviour of some of the interesting and important computer-based systems in operation today. Our new employees often do not have a safety or security background - we will provide suitable training inhouse for anyone with technical aptitude. Having capability and the right attitude is more important than domain knowledge.
  • Research: We research ways of building safety and assurance cases that are valid and believable, using techniques from graphical languages to logic. We are also at the leading edge of research in software analysis techniques, and we put our research into practice.

The candidate

  • Have a strong background in computer science or software engineering, like code and computers and understand how they work.
  • Have a thorough knowledge of current principles and practices related to the evaluation of digital systems
  • Become a technical specialist for the organisation in the application of specific concepts or areas of work e.g on the static and dynamic analysis of embedded digital systems.
  • Keep informed of new developments and requirements affecting the organisation and able to develop new methods or techniques for solving relevant problems.

You should be able to write well and present technical material clearly. You must be capable of weighing diverse opinions, providing advice that is firmly based on an understanding of policy and precedent, and when appropriate, defend that advice in a firm but non-confrontational way. 

In addition you will have a selection of the following

  • Excellent team skills and able to work in diverse multi-disciplinary, multi-national teams.
  • Routinely interact with clients, customers and others. Lead project meetings and make presentations. Represents the organization and maintains liaison with individuals and related organizations.
  • Supervise staff to complete a project or an assignment and develop plans, schedules, or coordinate the preparation of documents or activities for multiple projects.
  • You will have an Interest in business development and direction and able to contribute to company strategy.
  • Be recognised by peers for leadership or influencing qualities. Nationally or internationally recognised as an expert in their field.

In addition, you will need a good degree in a relevant subject (computer science, mathematics, physics etc) and most of us have Masters degrees or PhDs.

As the work might involve classified information, you should have or be qualified to obtain UK security clearance. 

The position will involve travel within the UK, and in some cases to Europe and the US.
