Logistics Support Analysis Lead

Boeing Defence Australia is inviting a Logistics Support Analysis Lead to join the MQ-28 Ghost Bat program in Brisbane. The role lives in the MQ-28 Operations and Test team and reports to the MQ-28 Logistics Engineering Manager. It’s a permanent, full-time position that’s worked onsite, with the option to base in Brisbane or Amberley. If you enjoy guiding a diverse team, solving complex logistics puzzles, and contributing to a high-profile defence program, this could be a solid fit.

The MQ-28 Ghost Bat program is a major initiative that aims to give Defence a disruptive advantage. Boeing Defence Australia is expanding the project team and needs a capable lead to deliver engineering support services across the program. The right person will be an effective communicator who can motivate colleagues spread across different locations and keep the work moving in a dynamic environment.

Day-to-day work in the MQ-28 logistics footprint

In this role you’ll steer the creation, analysis and delivery of Integrated Logistics Support artefacts, ensuring the logistics backbone supports operations as the program progresses. You’ll validate Logistics Product Data through PSA techniques to make sure provisioning data meets the program’s requirements, and you’ll align analyses and reporting with provisioning needs to keep logistics support on track. You’ll draw on your technical understanding to keep maintenance support equipment ready and fit for use, and you’ll follow established quality processes to keep the LPD accurate and complete in line with team plans and GEIA-STD-0007C and GEIA-HB-0007B. You’ll also work closely with fellow Product Support members, doing self-checks, identifying process improvements and helping the team finish tasks on time to support project milestones.
