In a recent report by Engineering UK, the charity recorded a “small but significant” decline in the number of women working in engineering and technology roles, particularly in the 35-44 age range.

Published just a few weeks ahead of INWED 2024, this report highlights the challenge of increasing the number of women choosing engineering careers. Strategic national programmes such as Team Tempest have identified diversity in engineering as a major factor in ensuring the delivery of innovative capability.

Joining host Zevi Watmough to discuss their experiences as engineers and their roles developing the UK’s next-generation of combat air system are:

• Sarah a Degree Apprentice Engineer at BAE Systems,
• Kristy a Senior Engineer at Leonardo,
• Caroline an Engineer with the UK MOD,
• Kat a Senior Engineering Manager, at MBDA and,
• Kate a Degree apprentice from Rolls Royce.
