**Job summary**:
The Develop Directorate acts as the thought leaders for the RN, leading the development of the Royal Navy’s future warfighting capability and acting as the Design Authority for RN capabilities of the future to achieve the optimum mix of present and future warfighting technologies for a modern, global and ready Royal Navy.

Develop is divided into five parts, **Strategic Force Development, Capability Sponsor, UWB, Shipbuilding and NavyX.**

Strategic Force Development is responsible for developing the changing and future demands of our operational commitments as outlined within Defence Plan, Transformation Plan and Navy Command Plan by delivering a more agile and adaptable military capability and by owning the Capability Management Plan and ensure the effective prioritisation of resources to meet the Navy’s strategic priorities and outcomes.

Capability Sponsorship will deliver an ambitious capability portfolio, cohering all capability development programme and project activity across Navy Command. Through the development of future concepts, DEVELOP also leads future thinking beyond these headmarks and seeks to harness DSTL research to exploit the novel, affordable, battle-winning technologies of tomorrow and houses the NavyX Team which is driving innovation throughout the Naval Service. It also leads NCHQ’s Strategic and Maritime Force Development activity.

The UWB team is responsible for through-life capability sponsorship of Navy UWB capabilities and for cohering pan-Defence UWB capability planning; also responsible for establishing new major UWB programmes and delivery of the ASW Spearhead Programme and for managing substantial international collaboration activity.

The Develop Shipbuilding Team is responsible for managing the Royal Navy’s 30 Year Shipbuilding Plan and the Shipbuilding Pipeline as outlined in the National Shipbuilding Strategy (NSbS).

This position is advertised at 37 hours per week.

The Develop Sub Portfolio Programme Controls Officer will work in a broad range of P3M functional activities at a ‘user level’ and may be assigned to support the functional leads within the Sub-Portfolio Office (Sub-PfO) and/or assigned to support Programmes/Projects across the Directorate.
