Want to develop your engineering career while contributing to real-world defence projects? At NP Aerospace, our armour and vehicle systems protect lives globally – and we’re looking for a Project Support Engineer to help make it happen.

This is a great opportunity for an early-career engineer to gain hands-on experience across product development, testing, and technical project delivery. You’ll work closely with experienced engineers on fast-paced, complex programmes that directly support military and security operations.

* Supporting engineers with day-to-day delivery of projects across the CAS product portfolio
* Assisting with prototype builds, testing prep, and initial development activities
* Managing components and materials through suppliers and in-house processes
* Interrogating CAD models (Creo preferred) and supporting with minor updates
* Reviewing engineering drawings and BOMs to support procurement and build
* Tracking parts and documents via PLM (Windchill 10.1+) and ERP (QAD/SAP) systems
* Collaborating with project, engineering, and production teams to solve real-time issues

What you’ll bring

* A formal engineering qualification (or equivalent experience in a technical role)
* Some experience in manufacturing, defence, aerospace, or automotive environments
* Ability to read technical drawings and interpret specifications accurately
* Familiarity with CAD software (Creo or SolidWorks) and PLM/ERP tools
* Strong attention to detail, a proactive mindset, and willingness to learn
* Good organisation and communication skills in a fast-paced setting

What you’ll get in return

* £30,000–£35,000 salary (subject to experience)
* Discretionary half-year bonus scheme
* Two weeks’ paid leave for Reservists and Cadet training
* Paid leave for Cadet Force Adult Volunteers (CFAVs)
* 9% combined pension contribution (4% employer / 5% employee)
