Our company

Located in central Guildford, 35 minutes from Waterloo, we are a small (<10 core
staff) software company, delivering unique strategic decision-support
simulations
to large organisations, primarily military clients and their suppliers. Our
innovation and pursuit of excellence in client care have resulted in our clients
across and outside the MOD consistently asking us to work with them again and
again.

Using our visually appealing and intuitive simulations, managers test out
manpower strategies, training systems and transition programmes - without
needing
to risk shareholder or taxpayers' money and without risk to operations.

Our simulation-based applications employ leading business-simulation tools at
their core, layered with user-interface technologies and integrated with MISs
and
client legacy systems.

Our Culture

We are a flexible, tight-knit team, and we actively share our learning and
experiences and constantly strive for improvement in what we do. You can expect
your contribution to be fully valued and rewarded with the opportunity to
develop
as your potential allows. Although the roles involve travel to client sites,
our
style is to do our work in our office, respecting team members' personal lives
and maximising opportunities for cross-fertilisation of ideas.

Applications

Applicants should send a CV and covering letter in the first instance to Janice
Clay at recruitment@futurasimulations.com.

Yours,

Christopher Barker
Director, Defence Systems
