We are the Airbus Commercial Aircraft Future Projects Office and are responsible for the preliminary design of all Airbus Commercial Aircraft. Everything from maintaining the competitiveness of our current product line, right through to engineering the next generation of Airbus aircraft. We actively contribute to our decarbonisation ambition, ready to tackle the environmental challenges we face.
As an innovative and inclusive team, we value and encourage different ways of thinking and working to get the best technical solution. Our team members are trusted and empowered to solve the challenges the business sets us.
For this internship, you would be working within either the Wing and Landing Gear Team or the Overall Aircraft Preliminary Design Team. You will work on the early stages of projects and could cover a number of disciplines in order to deliver an optimised solution for either wing or complete aircraft problems. To achieve this, you will work with Future Project team members in the UK, France, Germany and Spain and possibly other engineering teams within the business so communication skills will be key.
This is an excellent opportunity to gain experience of the preliminary phase of aircraft design and its wider business impact. You will also have the chance to take part in initiatives outside your day to day tasks that will provide opportunities for personal development. Examples of these could be: attending careers fairs, organising site tours and running STEM sessions in schools.
