We’re hiring Vehicle Technicians and we need them now.

NP Aerospace is expanding its production capability to support high-priority defence programmes, and we’re building a team of skilled Vehicle Technicians to deliver it. This is your chance to work on specialist military vehicles where precision, quality and purpose genuinely matter.

You’ll thrive in this role if you’re hands-on, take pride in your work, and want to be part of a team delivering vehicles that protect lives. With immediate starts available and strong potential for extension, this is a real opportunity to get involved in meaningful, high-impact work.

What you’ll get in return

At NP Aerospace, we know our success comes from our people. That’s why we invest in benefits that support your health, reward your hard work, and help you grow your career:

Performance rewards – discretionary bonus opportunities
Flex your day – flexible start and finish times (subject to manager approval and operational needs)
Time to recharge – 25 days’ holiday + 8 bank holidays, with the option to buy more through our Holiday Purchase Scheme
Support for Defence – two weeks’ paid leave for Reservists and Cadets, plus paid leave for Cadet Force Adult Volunteers (CFAVs)

Peace of mind – life cover at 3x base salary
Health & wellbeing first – BHSF Cash Healthcare Plan to support everyday health costs
Grow with us – career development and advancement opportunities within a global business
Supportive environment – a team culture built on innovation, collaboration, and purpose

What you’ll be doing

You’ll support the assembly and integration of mechanical and electrical systems on low-volume, high-specification defence vehicles. Working as part of a collaborative production team, you’ll help ensure every vehicle meets the highest standards of safety, quality, and performance.

Your work will include assembling and fitting sub-systems to precise tolerances while following technical drawings, work instructions, and defined quality standards. You’ll use specialist tools, equipment, and approved materials safely and correctly, inspecting components and completed assemblies to ensure accuracy.

You’ll collaborate closely with Production, Engineering, and R&D teams, contributing to lean manufacturing initiatives and identifying opportunities for process improvement. Above all, you’ll work safely, consistently, and with pride in your craft.

Our team embraces modern technologies, including AI-assisted tools, to work smarter and deliver better results. Candidates should either have experience using AI tools or demonstrate a willingness to learn and apply them in their role.

What you’ll bring

We’re looking for experienced, hands-on fitters with strong attention to detail and the ability to work as part of a high-performing team.

City & Guilds Level 3 (or equivalent) in Automotive, Mechanical, or Vehicle Systems
Experience in mechanical fitting or low-volume vehicle assembly
Confidence interpreting engineering drawings and working from schematics
Comfortable operating in a fast-paced, quality-focused manufacturing environment
Strong attention to detail with a proactive, team-oriented mindset
A solid work ethic and commitment to high standards
Experience of using AI tools or demonstrates a willingness to learn and apply AI in role.

Bonus if you have:

Experience with military, specialist, HGV or off-highway vehicles
Exposure to electrical integration or sub-system installation
Experience using (or willingness to learn) AI tools in your work

If you don’t meet every requirement but have strong mechanical experience, we’d still encourage you to apply.
