Sydney, Australia AtkinsRéalis Full time

Are you ready to take your career to new heights? AtkinsRéalis is expanding rapidly, and we are looking for talented individuals like you to join our team. With exciting opportunities to shape your own role and grow your career, this is the perfect time to join us on our journey to success.

We are AtkinsRéalis, a world-leading design, engineering and project management organisation. We connect people, data and technology to transform the world’s infrastructure and energy systems. Together, with our industry partners and clients, and our global team of over 30,000 consultants, designers, engineers and project managers, we can change the world.

Our inclusive, diverse, and energized work environment is something we take pride in. We foster an open culture founded on our core values**:Safety, Integrity, Innovation, Collaboration, and Excellence**.

**Role Summary**

AUKUS is a trilateral capital programme to develop new nuclear submarine capability in the IndoPacific region. AtkinsRéalis has a long history of supporting defence programmes and the UK Submarine Enterprise which gives AtkinsRéalis ANZ a springboard with which to develop an Australian defence business in support of AUKUS.

To support this growth ambition, we are seeking to recruit a Defence Market Lead for our new Australian Defence business. Reporting directly to the CEO of Australia & New Zealand, the Defence Market Lead will be tasked to develop the AUKUS opportunity in Australia, building on the core AtkinsRéalis skills of complex nuclear infrastructure design, nuclear safety and integrated project delivery. The overall aim is to achieve a pipeline of opportunities, routes to market and the capability to deliver the opportunities.

As an integral member of the AtkinsRéalis ANZ Senior Leadership Team, the Defence Market Lead will lead the development of this new line of business, taking direct accountability for agreed priority target areas. You will build trusted relationships across the Australian defence market, including the DoD, Prime Contractors & Partners as well as lead our Win Work activities, managing key internal and external stakeholders, driving excellence in bidding, and ensuring seamless transition into delivery.

**Desired Skills, Experience and Capabilities**

This role will require an individual who is comfortable working at a senior level who has strong relationship-based influencing skills with an ability to work across the Australian AUKUS landscape. The role holder will be a team builder with strong business acumen to identify and qualify client needs and associated business opportunity.

We recognise the challenge in building a capability to support AUKUS and we are keen to speak to individuals who can bring their energy, enthusiasm and knowledge into the space and who have experience of one or more of the following areas:

- An in-depth understanding of defence (Australia, UK or US) or civil nuclear infrastructure markets.
- Experience of operating in a defence nuclear market is an advantage, but not essential.

**ADDITIONAL INFORMATION**

**We're not all the same and that's our greatest strength and we** believe that 'Different Makes a Difference.'** Join us and become part of a diverse community from various cultures and abilities. Our mission is to ensure that every individual feels included and has an equal voice. We are committed to being sensitive to your unique needs and aspirations.

By championing **inclusive, accessible, and sustainable design**, you’ll inspire positive change in the world around you. Together, we’re shaping a better future—one where innovation and collaboration thrive.
