MBDA UK also runs a Military Transition Scheme, an 8 or 12 week internship open to military personnel in their final year of service. The programme is designed to support the transition into the civilian workplace by giving participants the opportunity to contribute to real work on real projects across all areas of the business.

We recognise that Service personnel bring outstanding experience, highly transferable skills and strong core values that add significant value to our teams. MBDA is proud to have a strong and supportive veterans community (some of our members pictured, left), and this scheme was created by veterans to help service leavers explore how their military experience can translate into meaningful roles within our organisation.

During the scheme, participants gain in-depth work experience, build networks across the company, and have the opportunity to connect with mentors and members of our veteran community who can share insight and guidance. The programme is open to people from all backgrounds, and MBDA works hard to create an environment where everyone can succeed, with supportive networks and an inclusive culture that enables people to balance their careers with the next chapter of their lives.

Our goal is to give service leavers a platform to demonstrate their abilities and transferable skills. Many participants from previous schemes have gone on to secure permanent roles within MBDA.

Applications are now open for our scheme starting in September – please click here to apply.
