**Job summary**:
**Do you want to join Defence and play your part in supporting our armed forces to operate effectively?**

Each year a third of the Defence budget is spent on Support. The Defence Support Organisation sits at the heart of providing support to the UK's Armed Forces. This 650-strong organisation works with both civilian and military personnel across Defence and exists to ensure that wherever Defence is operating, it can outpace, outwit and where necessary out-fight its adversaries. We provide logistic and engineering support to UK Armed Forces at home and abroad and have a broad remit spanning from planning to operational delivery. We are also driving a results-orientated transformation agenda to modernise Defence's logistic and engineering support services and contributing towards the Defence strategy to meet the UK Government goal of Net Zero 2050.

We offer an inclusive, encouraging working environment providing opportunities for you to thrive in your role and progress your career. Our core values are Respect, Trust, Understanding and Kindness as we passionately believe these will enable both a diverse workforce and ultimately high performing teams.
