At Frazer-Nash we help organisations deliver innovative engineering and technical solutions to make lives safe, secure, sustainable, and affordable. Our people are an integral part of our ability to do this.
With this in mind, we are currently seeking experienced Aerospace Assurance and Certification Consultants to undertake challenging and interesting work that helps improve the wider world.

We are particularly interested in motivated consultants who are keen to network with clients to secure new work and lead the delivery of projects supported by the wider team of engineers.
Our clients look for support in initial certification and type airworthiness, continuing airworthiness and technical delivery of projects.

You will develop a portfolio of project deliveries, hone your consultancy skills and help develop more junior engineers and graduates. As part of Frazer-Nash you may also have opportunities to work outside aerospace or gain civil experience to widen your skillset further.
