We are a highly innovative and rapidly growing defence and technology company that design, develop, and deliver some of the world’s most advanced defence related training, products, and services.

We were recently crowned Employer of the Year at the British Ex-Forces in Business Awards 2023. We have been listed as one of the ‘100 Best Large Companies to Work For’ in the UK and Midlands by Best Companies several times as well as achieving ‘Best Companies 3 Star Accreditation’ and a rating of ‘world-class’ for our employee engagement on a number of occasions.

We are also proud to have been honoured with two Queen’s Awards for Enterprise in Innovation, for our next-generation GECO military mission planning system.

As part of a unique and specialist defence company, our friendly team consists of experienced and highly capable individuals, working together with a mature ‘can do’ work ethic. Our central business functions are located in an easily accessible, bright and modern head office to the west of Lincoln, alongside our mission systems team, while the majority of our operational specialists are embedded alongside our Defence customers.

We are looking for multiple existing instructors with experience in training delivery and lesson writing to deliver sUAS and First Person View (FPV) training to a UK Military customer. The projects you will be involved in will be UK based but as part of the Inzpire team, there may be opportunities to be involved in wider projects across UK Defence, International and Civil UAS opportunities.

The role will be focused on sUAS and FPV technical training, therefore candidates should have depth of knowledge in building, repairing and operating a wide range of different sUAS and FPV systems. Applicants will be required to deliver technical training in accordance with current Defence System Approach to Training (DSAT) methodology. Successful candidates may be required to start at short notice so please let us know your availability when contacting us.

I nzpire is looking for dynamic, proactive individuals with a ‘can do attitude’ who are capable of working within a military training environment with minimal supervision and are keen to contribute their own experience, suggesting ideas to continually improve the training delivery.

At times the role will require flexible working or shift work in support of our customers training needs. Prior military or a uniformed service background is highly desirable, especially in the operation of sUAS and FPV systems in the land environment; all services and cap badges will be considered. Additionally, if further sUAS and FPV experience has been gained after leaving military service in a civil capacity, this will also be considered favourably.

However, we are also keen to build on the experience of highly experienced civilian sUAS and FPV Pilots who may not have served in the military but have outstanding skills and experience in sUAS and FPV operations.

  1).
• Experienced in sUAS and FPV operations/flying hours (evidenced with Logbook)
• Experience in teaching or instructing others
• Valid Driving Licence.

• Military Experience – HM Forces Veteran with significant service
  or
• Civil UAS Operations Experience – at least a couple of logged UAS operations
• Letter of Recommendation from military chain of command or past civil UAS…
