About us:

An exciting opportunity is available for an intern to join the Export Control team at Airbus Portsmouth for a 12-month placement.

Our team is responsible for ensuring an end-to-end export control process. We are involved in every step of a satellite programme life-cycle, from development, bid/proposal, manufacturing, and the final delivery to the customer. Our work is critical to enabling a fully compliant business whilst adhering to national and international regulations, and protecting Airbus from violations and any associated impacts, such as additional costs, sanctions, or fines.

This placement offers a unique insight into the world of Export Control, starting with the fundamentals and progressing to you working on a unique project, fully supported by Airbus Export Control Officers (ECOs).

What you will be doing:

You'll be fully integrated into the team, where you will learn about the job role and be involved in a range of responsibilities, including:

• Engaging with Export Control Regulations: You'll work with national and international laws and regulations, identifying and assessing risks associated with non-compliance. This will involve liaising with relevant government authorities as you develop your understanding;
• Gaining Exposure to Export Classifications: You'll learn to classify items for export, understand regulations, and ensure compliance. This includes monitoring and updating lists of products, equipment, components, and parts subject to export restrictions;
• Participating in Project Compliance: You'll start with assistance and then progress to direct involvement in an Airbus Defence and Space programme. You will provide export control advice and support to project managers and their teams, from the initial bid stage to licence applications, procurement, and manufacturing. This includes preparing export control documentation for timely export clearance and ensuring compliant data exchange and collaboration;
• Supporting Compliance Programme Development: You'll help develop and maintain policies, procedures, and training materials related to export controls. You will also support the implementation of Airbus directives and methods, define and update the end-to-end export control process, and contribute to internal compliance programme development;
• Developing Communication Materials: This involves creating content for SharePoint sites, webpages, or training materials to provide advice and support, including tools, and to deliver training to relevant business functions;
• Conducting Research: You'll assist with trade compliance projects and stay updated on regulatory changes. You will also help ensure permanent intelligence on end-use countries or customers and contribute to the continuous improvement of the export control function's performance.

Requirements:
