Description
STARK is a new kind of defence technology company revolutionizing the way autonomous systems are deployed across multiple domains. We design, develop and manufacture high performance unmanned systems that are software-defined, mass-scalable, and cost effective. This provides our operators with a decisive edge in highly contested environments.    We’re focused on delivering deployable, high-performance systems—not future promises. In a time of rising threats, STARK is bolstering the technological edge of NATO Allies and their Partners to deter aggression and defend Europe—today. As Flight Test Operations Coordinator at STARK, you are the person who keeps the machine running at home while the team is in the field. You make sure equipment is packed and ready before a campaign begins, that travel is sorted before anyone has to ask, and that the team on-site can focus on flying rather than logistics problems back at base. You are the reliable home-base anchor for our Flight Test Operations Manager and a critical enabler of every campaign we run. This is a broad, execution-oriented role that requires someone who is proactive, highly organised, and comfortable switching between tasks quickly. You will not regularly be deployed to test locations. Your strength is the steady, reliable support you provide from our home base. Equipment & Stock Management Maintain inventory of flight test equipment, tools, and consumables held at home base, with clear visibility of what is available, where it is, and what condition it is in. Manage battery stock: tracking charge cycles, maintenance status, and coordinating timely shipments to active test locations. Prepare and package equipment kits ahead of campaign deployments, following defined checklists and verifying readiness before despatch. Monitor stock levels proactively and reorder or escalate shortfalls before they can impact an active or upcoming campaign. Troubleshoot and resolve equipment availability issues raised by the onsite team, coordinating solutions quickly and keeping the Manager informed. Travel & Logistics Book and manage all travel arrangements for the Flight Test team in line with campaign schedules and company policy: e.g. flights, hotels, ground transport, and rental vehicles  Maintain a clear and up-to-date picture of who is travelling where and when across all active and upcoming campaigns. Handle last-minute changes, rebookings, and travel escalations calmly and efficiently, resolving issues before they reach the team on-site. Track travel spend and keep accurate records in line with internal processes. Remote Support to the Onsite Team Serve as the primary home-base contact for the travelling team: e.g. fielding requests, solving problems, and coordinating solutions at pace. Coordinate urgent shipping of equipment or materials to test locations when needed, managing suppliers and couriers to meet tight deadlines. Support the onboarding of team members into new campaign locations by preparing and sharing relevant local information, facility details, and access arrangements. Campaign Preparation Assist in the logistical preparation of upcoming flight test campaigns: e.g. readiness checklists, equipment packing lists, vendor coordination, and timeline tracking. Maintain shared planning documents and status trackers so that the Flight Test Operations Manager has a clear picture of preparedness at all times. Flag risks or gaps in campaign readiness early, giving the team time to resolve issues before deployment. Communications & Coordination Support internal communications between the home team and onsite crews, ensuring information flows clearly and nothing falls through the gaps. Help draft and distribute campaign updates, logistics briefings, and equipment status reports as directed by the Flight Test Operations Manager. Maintain contact l
