What We Are Looking For
At OMNIA Training, we’ve brought together some of the UK’s most innovative defence training organisations into a single consortium to delivery one powerful mission: to transform the British Army’s training system and create the best-trained Army in the world.
OMNIA Training will redefine the British Army’s collective training, standing up as the Army’s Strategic Training Partner. To do that, we are looking for the best and brightest minds from across the UK. We are backed by British innovation and powered by world-class experts, like you.
OMNIA Training is primed by Raytheon UK, but all five partners (Raytheon, Rheinmetall, Capita, Skyral and Cervus) are key to delivering the scope of the contract.
Rheinmetall Electronics UK (REUK) is entrusted with the training delivery aspect of the contract meaning that you will be at the front and centre of British Army training.
This is more than a job — it’s a mission. You will be part of a high-impact, collaborative environment, where we expect everyone to live the values and standards of the British Army. Every person in our team plays a critical role in delivering OMNIA Training’s vision: designing, delivering, and transforming collective training so the British Army is ready to fight and win.
This role is the Combined Arms Virtual Simulation (CAVS) Manager, which is responsible for supporting the Omnia Transition Project Manager with the successful transition of CAVS to the Army Collective Training Service (ACTS) and its subsequent management.
As the CAVS Manager, you will ensure that REUK resources are in place to enable the delivery of Virtual and Constructive training. You will support Raytheon UK in managing other parties involved in the delivery of CAVS
You will support the CAVS Site Lead by ensuring the support required from the Training Delivery and Training Support services is provided. You will work with the REUK CTTP Programme Management Office to ensure full recording and reporting of project data to report into the business on project progress and performance
