- Optionales Büro in Bristol
At Rowden, we’re scaling fast: new products, new geographies, and new critical industry customers. To keep pace, we need leaders who thrive in ambiguity, move seamlessly from strategy to execution, and maintain a relentless focus on delivering outcomes for end users. If you love tackling complex problems and building systems that last, this is your opportunity to shape the future of a next generation engineering powerhouse.
In this role, you’ll take on high-impact, cross-cutting initiatives that don’t come with a clear playbook. Every project will look different, from building new capabilities to scaling operations. You’ll work collaboratively across the business to collate data points, develop a plan and execute. You won’t always have perfect information, but you’ll be trusted to make decisions and lead.
You’ll work alongside a team of talented, mission-focussed individuals that share strong values and a focus on users. If you're passionate about pushing boundaries, thinking differently, and working through complex problems to deliver results, we want to hear from you.
Key Responsibilities
As Rowden’s Business Operations and Strategy expert, you will:
- Own strategically important projects that will help us build an engineering powerhouse.
- Work across engineering, product, commercial, and delivery teams to collate insights and collaboratively develop the best solutions.
- Bring curiosity, resourcefulness and drive to undefined problems, helping teams find clarity and make fast progress.
- Build clear, actionable, and data-driven plans that you can then execute with pace.
- Design repeatable systems and processes that help us scale with discipline, without losing agility.
Skills, Knowledge and Expertise
We are looking for someone who is enthusiastic about developing innovative, data-driven solutions to complex problems. You will be constantly learning and evolving in this role, but some key skills and experience you should already have include:
- Experience in high-growth, fast paced environments such as scale-ups or tech/engineering-led businesses.
- A track record of solving hands-on, complex problems and delivering measurable results.
- Strong analytical skills, including modelling scenarios, interpreting data, and building quantitative frameworks to support decision-making.
- Comfort in technical environments built through engineering experience, education, or working closely with product and engineering teams.
- Skilled at building credibility and communicating effectively across diverse stakeholder groups, from engineers to external partners.
- Proactive and self-directed - able to define problems, make decisions with imperfect information, and drive work autonomously.
- Interest in national security, defence, or technology for mission-critical environments.
