Project Managers - Defence Science & Technology Laboratory

We are the science inside UK defence and security. As an agency of the Ministry of Defence, we provide world-class expertise and deliver cutting-edge science and technology for the benefit of the UK.

We have a number of different divisions including Cyber and Information Systems, Platform Systems, Counter-Terrorism and Security, Exploration, Operations and Chemical, Biological and Radiological. As a project manager, you can enjoy variety within your division or experience something brand new by transferring to, or collaborating with, another division. We're looking for Project Managers to get involved in every stage of our vital projects, from  project initiation, final delivery to project closure. This is an opportunity for you to transfer and build your project management experience in unique areas such as artificial intelligence, future training simulation and chemical warfare detection systems.

We offer an environment that supports flexible working (hours and location), continuous learning and the opportunity to make a real-world impact.

What you'll do

As a Project Manager, you are the driving force behind delivering our concepts. This is so much more than managing spreadsheets and tracking budgets - you'll be a critical part of our team. You'll give our experts the tools to succeed, champion best practice and suggest new or improved ways of working. 

Who we need

You don't need a background in science or defence. Instead, you need the drive to push projects forward, learn new things and take on complex challenges. You'll also need excellent stakeholder management skills, financial acumen, and the ability to motivate people from all backgrounds.

Put yourself at the heart of innovation.
