Whilst delivering complex projects for Aerospace & Defence clients across the UK, and engaging as trusted partners on key national programmes, our South West team has continued to expand over the past 12 months, with the team now totalling almost 50 experts.

As such, the team have expanded into a new modern office space on the ground floor of Building 330 at the Bristol Business Park, in Bristol.

We caught up with Associate Director, Becky Veal to find out more:

Hi Becky, tell us a bit more about the Bristol office team?

“The Bristol office work collaboratively with Morson Projects engineering teams across the UK, including Manchester, Hull, Belfast and Yeovil.”

“Our Bristol office is a diverse and dynamic team of engineers and technical staff, who predominantly support clients across the Aerospace & Defence industry, including delivering programmes of work for Leonardo Helicopters, BAE Systems and Adient.  We’ve also recently been engaged on the government-backed ADCoSCA programme.

“During the past 12 months we have welcomed several new starters into the Bristol office, to support the demand of our projects, with no plans for our recruitment to slow down any time soon.”

What services do your team typically provide?

“The team provide support on everything from structural design concept through to manufacturing detail, including the integration of systems, stress analysis, tooling design and production support.

“Each day and each project come with a different set of challenges and unique solutions. Typical services we provide clients with include:

  • Certification and Technical Reports
  • Check and Final Stress Analysis
  • Detailed Design and DFM
  • Dynamic Analysis of Mechanisms
  • Fatigue and Damage Tolerance
  • FEM Analysis Including Pre and Post Processing
  • Initial Conceptual Design Studies
  • Product Development
  • Project Planning and Programme Management
  • Prototype and Production Design
  • Stress Conceptual Design Evaluation
  • Stress Sizing

What makes your team different from competitors?

“I believe that our biggest USP is our willingness and capability to work collaboratively with clients using the multitude of experience and methods that we have gained from working across a variety of different projects for a range of different clients.

“Our collaborative approach enables the team to be adaptable and reactive to any task, resulting in the ‘right people working on the job’. By offering an alternative view point and sharing best practices, we are able to challenge the conventional ways of working. This allows the wider team, the client and ourselves to work in partnership, achieving the best solution to any given challenge.”

What’s next for the team?

“As we continue to grow our team organically and are looking to invest in the future, we are engaging more and more with local Universities to tap into the next generation of engineering talent.

“We’re currently actively recruiting for roles of all experience levels, and with the support of our Early Careers Development Programme look forward to being able to bring more graduates into our team to support the senior team members. Passing on our knowledge and experience is something we’re really passionate about, so it really is an exciting time to be part of our team.

“We’ve also got some exciting events in the pipeline, including several local careers fair, client workshops, an AeroWomen Celebration Event where I will be joining the panel to talk about the diverse array of roles and career opportunities the aerospace industry has to offer. As well as exhibiting at the Royal Bath & West Show this summer within their STEM area. We hope to see plenty of familiar faces there!”
