As a part of our team, you will play a central role in providing our clients with design support and verification services, operational troubleshooting, and technical safety assessments.
Due to growth, we are looking to recruit an Engineer with experience in Gas Turbine Performance to provide support our clients and further advance the development of our in-house capability. This position will involve plenty of hands-on gas turbine performance work with an opportunity for individual growth and development. This position can be based at either our Derby or Bristol offices.
Our highest priority is to run a business in which individuals take responsibility for delivering high quality services to our customers while enjoying what they do. We offer competitive compensation, reward and a dynamic and flexible working environment that help support this aim.
We are strong supporters of flexible working and will consider a range of working patterns for this role. Please note that on-site attendance at one of our offices (Derby / Bristol) will be required for at least one day per week.
