* Liaise with internal technical specialists and external stakeholders to deliver accurate, evidence-based consultancy outcomes.
* Produce high-quality technical reports, documentation, and presentations for clients and partners.
* Support the development and review of navigational models and data processing tools.
* Contribute to project delivery planning, scheduling, and quality assurance processes.
Required Qualifications and Experience
* A degree in engineering, science, or a related technical discipline.
* 5–10 years of relevant maritime or navigational experience, ideally including operational shipboard or marine consultancy work.
* Strong understanding of marine operations, navigational systems, and data interpretation.
* Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and written communication skills.
* Comfortable engaging with clients, stakeholders, and multidisciplinary teams.
* Ability to work from the Oxford office as required (typically 2–3 days per week, or full-time on occasion).
* Professional membership of a relevant body (e.g., Institution of Civil Engineers), ideally Chartered or working towards Chartered status.
