About the Role We are recruiting an Aerostructure Cost Engineer to join a world-leading aerospace organisation, supporting cost modelling and design-to-cost activities across major aircraft programmes. This is an exciting opportunity to work at the centre of engineering, manufacturing, and commercial decision-making — helping shape cost-effective, next-generation aerostructures. You will join a highly respected Cost Engineering team, providing neutral, data-driven costing insight to influence design, manufacturing solutions, and supplier negotiations across composite and metallic structures. Key Responsibilities • Develop recurring (RC) and non-recurring (NRC) cost estimates for aerostructure components, primarily in composites. • Use digital costing tools, models and structured methods to provide accurate, consistent cost analysis. • Support Design-to-Cost (DtC) activities from early concept through to industrialisation and entry into service. • Analyse detailed work package estimates, identify cost-saving opportunities, and present recommendations to engineering and programme teams. • Provide manufacturing cost insight for multiple aircraft programmes. • Support and challenge suppliers during cost reviews and negotiations. • Ensure costing outputs are neutral, traceable, and aligned to best-practice processes. Skills & Experience Required Essential • Strong background in engineering or manu...
