Webinar: RAF Engineering Officer (Communications Electronic)

Join us for this webinar to learn more about the role of Engineer Officer (Communications Electronics) in the Royal Air Force. 

As an Engineer Officer (Communications Electronics) in the Royal Air Force, you’ll operate at the forefront of technology and national defence—where innovation meets mission-critical responsibility. In this highly technical and rewarding role, you’ll lead skilled teams of engineers and technicians who design, develop, maintain, and enhance the sophisticated systems that keep the RAF connected and operational across the globe.

Your expertise will span a vast and constantly evolving range of technologies—from secure global communication networks and satellite systems to air defence radars, surveillance sensors, and advanced IT infrastructure that underpins every aspect of RAF operations. You’ll ensure that vital data, intelligence, and command instructions flow seamlessly between aircraft, bases, and deployed units—no matter where in the world they operate.

Every mission, every sortie, and every operation depends on the systems you oversee. Whether you’re managing cutting-edge cyber-defence measures, integrating new digital technologies into the RAF’s global network, or leading the recovery of critical communications in challenging environments, you’ll play a central role in ensuring that our forces stay connected, protected, and mission-ready.

Beyond the technology, this is a role defined by leadership and problem-solving. You’ll inspire and develop your team, make strategic engineering decisions under pressure, and collaborate with other branches of the military, government, and industry partners to deliver reliable, secure, and innovative solutions.

This is engineering with real-world impact—where your decisions contribute directly to the safety, effectiveness, and success of the RAF and the UK’s defence operations around the world. Few engineering careers offer this level of responsibility, variety, and purpose.
