Aerospace & Defence

Aerospace and defence demand engineering at its most rigorous. We recruit across systems, design, and programme leadership for one of the largest defence companies in Europe and many of its peers, alongside aerospace primes and specialist suppliers across the UK.

Hiring in Aerospace & Defence

Aerospace & Defence jobs

Our Approach

Our aerospace and defence consultants stay in this market and don’t dip in from adjacent engineering sectors. They know the difference between a Systems Engineer with primes experience and one from a specialist supplier, and why that distinction matters at programme level. They understand why a Project Director from one defence company might be exactly right for a peer business, and why an aerospace engineer from a commercial environment might struggle with the rigour and clearance demands of a defence programme. That kind of sector knowledge is what we bring to every brief, and it’s why so much of our work here is repeat business from clients who know us.

How We Work

We work across permanent, contract, and interim aerospace and defence briefs, and we’ll always give you a straight view on the role – whether the rate or salary matches what the market expects, where the spec might benefit from refining, and which type of hire fits the situation if you want our take. Permanent hires usually make sense for the engineers and programme leaders you need long-term as part of the business. Contract or interim is often the right call for defined programme phases, capital projects, and engagements where security clearance and specialism both matter. Plenty of our clients use both.
