Supportability Engineer
SNC Mission Systems UK – Bristol
We are looking for a Supportability Engineer to join us at SNC Mission Systems UK in Bristol. We provide tailored mission systems integration and intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) solutions for the UK Government and its allies.
Our unique strength is our mission partner approach delivered by people who have first-hand operational experience. We understand the challenges, have the know-how to overcome them, and work together to succeed. Operating for over a decade, we deliver cutting-edge capabilities from open-source intelligence (OSINT) to uncrewed surface vessels and high-altitude one-way effectors that deliver true interoperability across all security levels.
As a Supportability Engineer, you will play a key role in supporting MOD-related projects providing advice and guidance on Integrated Logistical Support (ILS) activities that are happening within UK MOD programmes. No two days will be the same as you will support in BID ratings related to ILS one day, influence and inform decision as key link between SNC MS UK and the MOD the next. You will write up relevant documents as well as keeping spreadsheets updated as part of your day-to-day.
Some of your responsibilities will include…
- Providing consultation support to bids by assessing requirements and responding to statements of work
- Developing and maintaining documentation such as plans, Reports, Analysis and Repositories related to ILS and Supportability.
- Supporting project coordination for ILS related tasks and activities across departments such as Programs, Engineering, Procurement, Logistics and Maintenance teams.
- Providing logistical technical support to customers, end-users, and field service teams.
We particularly welcome applications from individuals currently serving in the Armed Forces or those transitioning into civilian careers. The skills, experience, and operational insight gained during your military service will enable you to quickly make an impact, acting as a key link between the MOD and SNC Mission Systems UK programmes.
With around 40% of our workforce coming from an Armed Forces background, you’ll be joining a team that understands the transition journey and can provide a supportive and familiar environment as you move into civilian life.
As a Supportability Engineer, you’ll work on meaningful, operationally relevant challenges that directly contribute to mission success. You’ll have real ownership of your work, collaborate closely with customers, and see the tangible impact of the solutions you deliver.
Most importantly, we’re looking for people who are eager to learn, willing to get stuck in, and excited to help shape the future of our organisation. If you’re looking to influence a growing defence business that rapidly turns innovative technology into operational capability, we’d love to hear from you.
