The Integrated Logistic Support (ILS) team in Safran Electrical & Power works across all
Programmes to ensure we offer complete support and service solutions to our customers in the
aftermarket, and ensure continued profitability from the parts and services provided. We optimise
elements of the product design to enable the provision of efficient support, and we tailor the
support solution to the customer, the product and the market.

You will contribute to and/or lead ILS work (depending on the size of the work package).

  1. Starting with customer requirements (technical and commercial) at the bid stage or early
    development phases, you will work with the Programme teams to provide all the elements for a
    successful Entry Into Service and ongoing support of our new products. Along the way, by
    working closely with Engineering and Aftermarket teams, you will influence both the product
    design and commercial offering to optimise whole life costs and provide a support solution that fits
    in with LPS strategic vision for the aftermarket.
  2. On existing platforms, you will respond to changes, such as upgrades, by ensuring the data and
    processes needed for effective support remain relevant and accurate. You will analyse
    opportunities to improve services and reduce costs or increase margins and make changes within
    the business to achieve the benefits.

In both cases, you will be responsible for:

  1. Planning and budgeting the required work (typically ranging from £100k to £500k in expenditure
    on labour over 12-18 months).
  2. Modelling and presenting the desired outcomes (including financial, typically covering £millions of
    aftermarket revenue over 25+ years, although you will be contributing to the model, and not solely
    responsible).
  3. Leading project teams of around 1 to 5 people.
  4. Reviewing the work of others, in cases where the originator is either still developing in certain
    areas or is not part of the business unit (e.g. other group companies or external partners).
  5. Working with customers to understand their requirements and future plans, and update them on
    progress.

A degree or significant experience in a technical area (aerospace, automotive, rail, production,
utilities – other highly regulated industries considered).

Experience in one or more of the following areas or similar, relevant experience:

  1. ILS, Product or Customer Support in a technical environment, Maintenance, Fleet Management,
    Plant Management, Asset Management (physical, not financial), Support Engineering, a role
    involving RAMS activities (Reliability, Availability, Maintainability and Supportability/Safety), New
    Product Introduction.

Appreciation of the constraints of working within a regulated industry. As a result you can create
credible, auditable work and are creative in your approach to problem solving.

Essential Skills:

  1. Understanding of how most of the following elements of ILS are created and used, and ability to
    use them as sources of information for decision making and informing others:

  • Planning of work based on available resources and keeping the team updated on progress
    (project management).
