Fareham, United Kingdom Rullion Full time

An opening has arisen for a leadership role in managing our engineering design department. The position of Head of Engineering reports directly to the General Manager and leads a multi-disciplinary technical team of engineers and technicians. The successful candidate we are seeking should have had a career progression spanning a technical specialist role in ideally an electro-mechanical engineering design discipline or with a bias on mechanical or electrical/electronics. In addition, the candidate must have proven experience managing the whole spectrum of product development and realization, including project management, design, V&V, certification where appropriate, orderly production handover into manufacturing, and lifecycle management.
We are looking for a proven people-manager with experience of managing a multi-disciplinary engineering technical team. An individual with a robust character willing and eager to take on technical challenges and work within set time and budget constraints. Strong project management capabilities and the ability to implement appropriate remedial measures, as and when appropriate, are required.
Leadership and motivational skills are key requirements in this role. The successful candidate would need to be an effective communicator able to establish and cultivate good relationships with multiple internal and external stakeholders. A thorough, disciplined and detailed style of working will be necessary with a logical and detailed analysis of requirements and processes. A detailed approach towards on-time/on-budget milestones delivery is an important requirement for successful performance.
This position calls for candidates who can maintain a high work rate and who will be discontented merely maintaining the status quo. Candidates who are always looking for new and better ways of doing things will be welcomed and valued in this role. Mobility and alertness will be required, with a clearly goal-directed restlessness qualifying for short-listing in this position.
