The successful candidate should have some experience in Training Needs Analysis (TNA) with an awareness of Joint Service Publication (JSP) 822 and the Defence Systems Approach to Training (DSAT).

A positive 'can do' attitude and pro-active behaviours with which to manage the review process of the training material.
Energy and enthusiasm to establish a good rapport with and deliver formal classroom training to small groups of end users.
An Engineering qualification or experience is desirable.
Join a great team!
The successful candidate will be joining an energetic and dynamic department operating within a fast-paced environment with a focus on achieving quality deliverables on time, on cost. The team has a reputation for developing and delivering high quality, innovative training products to our customers and this is reflected within the customer exam results and post course feedback.
