Sigma
is here to help our leaders of the future drive innovation, present new challenges and stimulate the process of change.
Sigma is a unique, fast tracked leadership programme that we have especially created for people of the very highest calibre. It lasts between three and five years, and is designed to develop the engineering and business talent, which will lead our business in the future.
There are two routes that you can take through the Sigma programme: our engineering framework, which enables you to remain as an engineer while still moving towards a key leadership role; and our business framework, which develops your talent for leadership within our business functions.
The Sigma programme is fully endorsed by the members of our Board, so it has a high profile. For us, it's a major, long-term investment in real potential, and that's why we look for some serious commitment, both of effort and time, in return.
The qualities you’ll need
To get the best out of the Sigma Leadership Programme – and also yourself – you will need the drive to create and seize opportunities, and the imagination to question the accepted.
You will need to be persistent and tenacious, with the ability to quickly learn new skills and concepts. You must be prepared to take business critical decisions, and will need the presence and credibility to build effective relationships with customers and suppliers. As well as being globally mobile, you should value diversity and difference.
In short, we expect the very best from you. But, in return we offer a future of demanding challenges and unrivalled opportunities. And, as you would expect, you can look forward to a very attractive rewards package indeed.
Sigma Suitability Quiz
If you are interested in applying for the Sigma Programme we recommend that you take the Sigma suitability quiz prior to applying. The quiz will help to set your expectations in the qualities and motivations that we are looking for in potential Sigma members. The quiz does not form part of the assessment process, and we do not record any results. To see if you have the qualities and motivations closely matched with what we are looking for, take the quiz http://sigmaquestionnaire.bae.solutions.investis.com/welcome.htm
