PA. Bringing Ingenuity to Life.
Job DescriptionPA Consulting helps defence clients utilise technology to accelerate science to practice in new and established markets. As the world changes at an ever increasing rate, PA’s clients use our technical expertise to think differently and disruptively in order to get ahead of the curve. Our physicists use a broad base of fundamental science to develop new technology concepts, understand how to bring them to reality, and then do it - ultimately answering the question, “Is this possible?” For this we need scientists who want to be creative in their use of physics, who can make complex technical concepts real, and who are happy with putting theory into practice.
We give our clients a true competitive edge by providing the data to make rational development decisions.
We do this by helping our clients understand the real world implications of the latest scientific developments through concept development, modelling and experimentation.
At PA we are looking for like-minded ‘hands on’ scientists that like nothing better than working in multidisciplinary teams to deliver differentiated generation after next capabilities for our clients.
QualificationsA strong academic background in applied and theoretical Physics – you will be someone who can draw on a solid understanding of a broad range of fundamental physical principles and apply them to challenging real world problems.
We know the skill-gap and ‘somewhat need to tick every box’ can get in the way of meeting brilliant candidates, so please don’t hesitate to apply – we’d love to hear from you.
