Northrop Grumman UK
“Having been at Northrop Grumman in the UK for 20 years, I am proud to say that we have always fostered an inclusive and collaborative environment. We encourage our employees to be curious and ask questions to ensure that we deliver on our commitment to our customers.
We make the UK and our allies safer through our Defence and Cyber and Intelligence businesses. We offer our early careers joiners the opportunity to explore the latest technologies and solve some of the world’s most complex challenges.
However, it’s not just about the critical work we do, but also how do it whilst maintaining our culture. I love that our company values are not just on a poster but are fully embedded in our working environment and enable us to focus on delivering the critical missions that our customers trust us to deliver every day.
For anyone joining us, I suggest you look into our Employee Resource Groups and our STEM outreach activities and get involved wherever you can. You may be surprised as to where these opportunities can lead you when you ‘say yes’ and the incredible people that you will meet along the way."
