- Contribute to the creation and maintenance of a System Safety Programme Plan that aligns with MIL-STD-882 and ARP4754B, ensuring documentation meets the rigour required for regulatory compliance and audit readiness.

- Ability to present safety cases to technical and non-technical stakeholders, translating complex safety arguments into clear, structured documentation that supports audit and regulatory compliance.

- Familiarity with systems engineering best practices, including requirements development, verification, and validation to integrate safety rigorously across multidisciplinary programme teams.

- Decisive decision-making with minimal guidance, owning outcomes end-to-end, and initiating solutions without waiting for direction.
