Why this role matters
For over 40 years, MASS’s Electronic Warfare Operations Support (EWOS) Group has delivered specialist software, services and training that directly support domestic and international Electromagnetic Warfare and Signals Intelligence (EWSI) and Cyber Electromagnetic Activity (CEMA) capabilities. We operate in a highly trusted, highly secure space, supporting programmes that genuinely shape operational outcomes.
As part of our continued growth, we’re expanding our training capability, based in our state-of-the-art Spectrum Warfare Academy and simulation suit in Lincoln. We’re looking for Senior EWSI and CEMA Trainers with real-world operational experience who can bring credibility, context and practical insight into the classroom.
This is a role for people who have worked with EW, intelligence or CEMA systems in the real world and want to pass that knowledge on to the next generation of operators and analysts.
What you’ll focus on
You’ll design, develop and deliver specialist EW and CEMA training to UK and international customers, ensuring courses are accurate, relevant and aligned to current operational realities.
You’ll:
- Design and deliver specialist training courseware and supporting materials
- Provide subject matter expertise into bids, projects and customer engagement
- Act as a primary point of contact for training-related contract activity
- Assess students, capture feedback and continuously improve course content
- Support the wider training team, including deputising for the Spectrum Warfare Training Manager when required
- Help shape future training offerings as EWOS grows its international customer base
Location & working pattern
This role is primarily based at our Spectrum Warfare Academy in Lincoln, with hybrid working as standard.
In practice, we’re looking for someone who can be on site for the majority of the working week (typically around Tuesday to Thursday), with the remainder of time spent working remotely when appropriate.
International travel will be required as part of customer programmes, sometimes at short notice.
You’ll be working alongside experienced domain specialists, engineers, scientists and former military personnel, delivering training in secure, operationally focused environments.
How you’ll support us
You’ll bring operational credibility into the training environment, helping customers build real capability, not just theoretical understanding.
That means:
- Delivering high-quality, engaging and technically accurate training

- Building strong relationships with customers and course participants
- Supporting bids and growth activity with SME input
- Maintaining the security, quality and integrity of all training materials
