Sitec looks to India for Engineers

Sitec is looking to build on existing relations with the Indian aerospace sector through the recruitment of additional design and stress engineers. The focus will be on recruiting skilled engineers to work on both aero-structures and aero-engine projects. Engineers are expected to help fill the skills shortage in the UK and will be used to expand Sitec’s existing teams on both current and future programmes. The company has a well established presence in India and has been working with both organisations and individuals from the Indian aerospace sector for over 5 years. Prospective candidates with 3 or more year’s relevant experience, and willing to work in the UK on aerospace programmes should send their details to us for consideration, using our contact form.
