A new partnership has been formed to help people from the North West get careers in the North West’s advanced aerospace engineering and manufacturing supply chain.
IN4 Group has joined forces with the North West Aerospace Alliance (NWAA), which represents around a quarter of the UK aerospace industry.
The North West region is the largest air sector industry cluster in Europe, contributing in excess of £7bn to the UK economy.
The collaboration will support local people by offering training and development in the most in-demand tech skills and provide them with access to a clear pathway of career opportunities.
“The North West has a strong industrial heritage and we are proud to be working with a prominent and influential organisation like the NWAA to establish this unique skills and talent partnership in the region,” stated Mo Isap, CEO of IN4 Group.
“We are excited to extend our Skills City operation into the region’s advanced aerospace engineering and manufacturing supply chain, where our ambition is to create the most diverse, local and industry-ready talent pipeline anywhere in the country. With the right support in place, these businesses will continue to thrive and contribute to the acceleration of future digital technologies.”
Professor Andrew Schofield, Chairman of the North West Aerospace Alliance, added:
“This is a fantastic opportunity to collaborate with IN4 Group on its Skills City initiative. I have witnessed first-hand the benefits that a programme like this can offer and I am looking forward to the NWAA providing the network with the advanced aerospace engineering and manufacturing companies in the region. This is a great step forward in helping develop the digital skills needed for the future.”
