Principal Structural Engineer
Principal Structural Engineer - 24 month contract - Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria (required onsite twice per fortnight) - £70.19 ph UMB or £52 ph PAYE (Inside IR35) The Umbrella rate quoted above is the Gross Umbrella rate (i.e. the rate we pay to the Umbrella Company inclusive of ALL employment costs). Please note, the rate paid by the Umbrella will be less, as will a Limited Deemed rate or Agency PAYE rate. Please get in touch to discuss the rates via these different payment vehicles. The Role This Role is intended to lead the development of the Structual System of the Submarine Design Sandbox (SDS) Platform through Design, Engineering, Transition to build, build, commission and set to work, over the next two years. The SDS environment is a dataset developed by BAES Submarines that has evolved and matured, currently enabling SSNA Design, Engineering and Transition to Build de-risking activities via the D2L2 contract. The digital dataset spans across the design lifecycle; Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) and NxGenDigital toolsets, whilst enabling Technology Demonstration Programmes (TDP) and spearheading Digital Thread and Twin (DTAT) initiatives. The BCCR Portland Walk Campus Simulated Environment utilises the D2L2 baseline outputs, which are value engineered to achieve the Submarine School of Experiential Learning (SCEL) capability requirements. This provides the SCEL with a capability matching the physical and digital experiential learning requirements, while also satisfying the original use case for SDS providing better value for money. The Portland Walk Campus Submarine Design Sandbox Simulated Environment will be a training variant designed and manufactured to fulfil the Portland Walk Campus Zone A and Zone B High Level and Skills Requirements for all of the functions, roles and tasks planned in the building. Role Responsibilties: Not limited to...
