Engineering jobs in Aerospace in the UK are as bouyant as they have been in a long time due to growth and activity in both the Civil and Military sectors. Large contracts for both National and International orders have meant that requirements are high for engineers in the aeronautical sector. This is not just a short term view either. It would seem that the current workload indicates activity will be maintained for the next 7-10 years with few jobs at risk as a number of these projects are in their infancy. The market leader BAE recruited over 1000 staff last year and they are still in the midst of a major recruitment drive in 2007. The vast number of projects mean that there is real need for engineering project managers on interim assignments, larger companies are even outsourcing projects to ensure that they are getting completed to clients orders.
