Experience with data analytics and tools such as Power BIto assess operational effectiveness. You will bring a lifecycle-cost mindset to repair engineering, balancing technical integrity, product safety, repair capability, cost and customer requirements to develop solutions that improve the competitive and commercial performance of Rolls-Royce and our customers. This position offers the opportunity to combine deep engineering expertise with practical exposure to component repair and MRO operations. You will regularly engage with service-run hardware and repair facilities, gaining direct insight into component condition, repair technologies and the challenges faced in returning critical engine components safely to service. We are an equal opportunities employer. We’re committed to developing a diverse workforce and an inclusive working environment. We believe that people from different backgrounds and cultures give us different perspectives which are crucial to innovation and problem-solving.
