Location: London, Warwick, Manchester, Motherwell, Derby, York
Function: Multiple – Engineering, Project Delivery, Operations, Procurement, Digital & Support Functions

At BakerHicks, we recognise the skills, dedication and values that service leavers, reservists and military family members bring. As a proud supporter of the Armed Forces community, we welcome applications from all ex‑Forces backgrounds - from technical trades to leadership, planning and operations.

This Expression of Interest is your fast track into our talent pipeline. Tell us about your background and preferences, and our Talent Acquisition team will match you to current or upcoming roles across our UK teams and projects.


Where you could make an impact

Depending on your skills and interests, we regularly hire into areas such as:

  • Engineering disciplines: Mechanical, Electrical, EC&I, Civil/Structural, High Voltage, Architecture
  • Project delivery: Project/Programme Management, Planning & Scheduling, Cost/Commercial, PMO, Document Control
  • Operations & logistics: Site coordination, Supply Chain, Field Operations, Commissioning
  • Digital & support: BIM/Information Management, CAD, Business Support

(If you’re exploring a complete career change, we’ll help translate your military experience to adjacent roles.)


What you’ll bring

You don’t need a civilian job title that “matches” to add value here. We’re looking for people who can demonstrate:

  • Leadership & teamwork in multi‑disciplinary environments
  • Operational planning, risk management and delivery under pressure
  • Technical aptitude (engineering, maintenance, comms, logistics, or equivalent)
  • Safety mindset and adherence to standards and process
  • Clear communication, stakeholder coordination and problem‑solving
  • Learning agility and a continuous improvement approach

Relevant qualifications and tickets (military or civilian) are welcome, but not mandatory for expressing interest.


What we offer

  • Forces‑friendly onboarding and manager check‑ins at 30/60/90 days
  • Access to a supportive Armed Forces community (veterans, reservists and allies)
  • Training and upskilling pathways aligned to your next career step
  • Flexible/hybrid working where role allows
  • Support for reservist commitments in line with company policy
  • Competitive salary and benefits, with opportunities across the UK

Security & project requirements

Some roles - particularly in Defence and regulated industries - may require Baseline Personnel Security Standard (BPSS), SC or DV clearance. You’re encouraged to apply even if you don’t currently hold clearance; we’ll guide suitable candidates through the process where required.


How to apply (EOI)

Please submit either your CV or a short career summary, and answer the brief questions (as part of the application process) so we can route you to the best opportunities:


No CV yet?
That’s fine - share a short summary covering your interests and experience and we’ll take it from there.


What happens next
Our Talent Acquisition team reviews EOIs on a rolling basis. If your profile aligns with a current or upcoming opportunity, we’ll get in touch to discuss fit, next steps, and any preparation or support that could help you succeed.
As this is an expression of interest, the right opportunity may not exist immediately, so you may not hear from us straight away - but your details will remain in our talent pipeline for future roles.


Inclusion matters

We’re an equal‑opportunities employer. We celebrate diverse experiences and are committed to creating an environment where everyone can thrive - veterans, reservists, military spouses/partners and those with caring responsibilities are especially encouraged to apply.

If you need adjustments during the application or interview process, please let us know.

What you need to know about the Belfast Tech Scene

If asked to name the birthplace of the RMS Titanic, you might not say Belfast. Similarly, if asked to name Europe's leading destination for foreign direct investment in new software development, Belfast might not come to mind. Yet, both are true. The city has emerged as a tech powerhouse, recently ranked among the best in the U.K. for tech careers — especially for software developers. It also leads the U.K. with the highest percentage of software development jobs advertised.
