We have a vacancy for a Pyrotechnic Developer, to be based in our Peterborough factory.

We have a rare opportunity for an individual to join the R&D team of our prestigious, worldwide special effects company, with a client list that includes some of the world's largest theme parks, media and film production companies, and major rock bands.

Your duties as a Pyrotechnic Developer will encompass the development and improvement of pyrotechnic based special effects used in the theatrical and special events field.
