Join ICOMAT – Revolutionising the Future of Lightweight Manufacturing! iCOMAT is an advanced manufacturing company that invented Rapid Tow Shearing (RTS) - the only proven technology for producing defect-free curved-fiber composite parts at industrial scale. We deliver the lightest structures possible for aerospace, automotive, defense, and space, at a rate and cost efficiency that far exceeds existing composite production processes.

We build and operate automated factories for composite materials, delivering components to Tier 1 suppliers and OEMs. The business has three main divisions: development of automated production machines, development of software design and production tools, and operation of the factory. We work with 25+ customers and completed the largest ever Series A in composites manufacturing to fuel a significant scale-up, with growth plans that will see the business multiply in size over the next two to three years and expand operations into the UK, Europe and the US.

The business has currently more than 130,000 sqm of production capacity with manufacturing facilities in the UK (Gloucester and Swindon) and the US (Dayton, Ohio); a Hardware R&D Centre in Bristol, UK; and a Software R&D Centre in Athens, Greece.

Based primarily at our Gloucester site, you'll be the primary IT support presence for our UK operations, working closely with the Business Systems Manager to support users, systems, and infrastructure across Gloucester, Bristol, and Swindon.

This is a varied, hands-on role combining day-to-day technical support with wider IT operations, project work, and user enablement.

As iCOMAT continues to grow, this role offers a clear pathway into broader infrastructure, systems administration, cybersecurity, and project delivery responsibilities, with opportunities to help shape the future growth of the IT function.
