About Us

When you’re looking for perfection, nothing beats the systems found in nature. 3 billion years of evolution. That’s the inspiration behind so much of what we do. Join us at BAE Systems and you’ll become part of Europe’s largest defence, security and aerospace company with over 105,000 employees worldwide and sales that exceeded £18.5bn in 2008.

We develop, deliver and support some of the most advanced defence, security aerospace systems in the world, leading to over 100 new inventions each year.

So whether it’s aircraft, surface ships, submarines or radar systems, our people make it happen. Which means it doesn’t matter if you have a business, engineering or finance background. If you’re striving to become a top performer, you’ll find all the inspiration you need to achieve your goals here.

Everyone learns by experience. Even Mother Nature. In just one year you could be helping develop systems for a 7,400 tonne submarine or a marketing strategy that takes a new product to market around the world. Anything is possible if you’ve got the talent and ambition. We’ve got a wide range of undergraduate placements in Business, Engineering and Finance. Based all over the UK, they’ll give you the chance to work on amazing new products and develop fantastic new skills.
