insights Aerospace, Defence, Security & Technology graduates tell all!
Have you considered a job in aerospace engineering? Or perhaps a career in mechanical engineering?
We spoke to Daniel Robinson and Greg Bannatyne who discussed their experiences on the graduate programme with engineer James Domone, having completed their 3rd and final year of the graduate scheme in 2019. Both Daniel and Greg have qualifications in aerospace and worked within our Mechanical Engineering team within Aerospace, Defence, Security & Technology business (ADS&T).
Daniel has since progressed to a Senior Engineer & Aerospace Project Manager at Atkins, managing multiple projects for key clients. His responsibilities include contract management, scoping of work, resource management, appropriate internal and client reporting, billing and cash flow management. Greg has since moved on to another company but we wish him all the best in his career.
