Northrop Grumman UK
"When I joined Northrop Grumman in the UK, I found an extremely friendly, inclusive and collaborative organisation with people who are willing to answer my questions and committed to delivering for our customers, working hard to drive our business forwards. We make the UK 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 most complex challenges in the world.
It’s not all about the work we do, but how we maintain our culture. I love what we stand for and our values define how we work and deliver for our customers. Check out 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 and the people that you will meet along the way."
