Job Description
Job Title: Safety Coherency Engineer - Submarines
Working Pattern: Full-Time
Working Location: Faslane/Glasgow
At Rolls-Royce we have an exciting opportunity for a Safety Coherency Engineer to join our team in Faslane/ Glasgow.
Why Join Rolls-Royce?
At Rolls-Royce we are proud to be a business that has truly helped to shape the modern world and are committed to always being a force for progress; powering, protecting and connecting people everywhere.
By joining Rolls-Royce, you'll have the opportunity to work on world-class solutions, supported by a culture that believes individuality is our greatest strength, and all perspectives, experiences and backgrounds help us innovate and enable our high-performance culture.
This opportunity has arisen at our Faslane site supporting the NRPA and Babcock to enhance the company's performance on product safety, and to implement the organisation's safety management system across the Clyde Base Community.
This is a truly unique opportunity offering the chance to work directly with customers, suppliers and partners sharing knowledge and expertise with a wider UK Safety Team.
Regional Benefits
We offer excellent development opportunities, a competitive salary, and exceptional benefits. These include bonus, employee support assistance and employee discounts.
Your needs are as unique as you are. Hybrid working is a way in which our people can balance their time between the office, home, or another remote location. It’s a locally managed and flexed informal discretionary arrangement. As a minimum we’re all expected to attend the workplace for collaboration and other specific reasons, on average three days per week.
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.
