Roke offers specialist knowledge in sensors, communications, cyber, and AI and ML. We change the way organisations think and act – through dynamic insights from the analysis of multiple layers of data. We take care of the innovative, technical stuff that keeps everyone safe – that's our mission, passion, and motivation.

This is a client-facing role, which will require time spent on site with Roke's customers, predominantly in London. You will be part of a team united by purpose and ambition, working towards an exciting growth journey. We intend to double our headcount by 2027, and every individual counts.

  • Annual bonus: Based on profit share and personal performance
  • Private medical insurance: Includes cover for existing conditions
  • Holiday: 25 days plus public holidays and your birthday off
