Compensation: £57,000 - £71,500 + Benefits

Role Type: Full time / Permanent

At Babcock we’re working to create a safe and secure world, together, and if you join us, you can play your part as a Project Manager at HMNB Clyde in Helensburgh, Argyll and Bute.

The role

As a Business Change Manager, you’ll play a pivotal role in delivering transformation across the Naval Nuclear sector. This is an opportunity to influence how people, teams and organisations successfully adapt to change, ensuring that major programmes deliver lasting benefits and achieve their strategic objectives.

Day-to-day, you’ll help leaders and teams embrace new capabilities, processes and ways of working. You'll combine stakeholder engagement, business readiness and change management expertise to drive successful adoption and embed sustainable change. In return, you'll gain exposure to high-profile transformation programmes that directly support national defence and security, while developing your own leadership, consulting and change management capabilities.

  • Developing and implementing change management and business readiness plans that support organisational transformation.
  • Engaging with leaders, managers and stakeholders to build commitment, understanding and adoption of change.
  • Facilitating workshops, impact assessments and engagement activities to support successful programme delivery.
  • Assessing change impacts, risks and dependencies and implementing mitigation strategies where required.
  • Supporting the delivery of transformation benefits through effective communication, behavioural change and continuous improvement.

This role is full time, and is based on site at HMNB Clyde, in Helensburgh, Argyll and Bute.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
