Why attend?
We don't want our jobs to be defined by a single advert. Our open days are a chance for both experienced professionals and future talent to have genuine chats with real people about what it's like to work here.
On the day you can expect colleagues from a wide range of teams, willing and ready to share their insights with you about the defence industry, their expertise, and how they feel about their colleagues and workplace.
In 2022 our employee reviews on Glassdoor have led to us being the only UK defence company to make it on to the Glassdoor Best Places to Work list.
We are proud to be an inclusive employer and we welcome and encourage applicants/attendees from all backgrounds. We are always looking to expand and diversify our talent pool, as we know that a diverse workplace breeds collaboration and innovation. MBDA representatives from some of our inclusivity employee networks will also be in attendance on the day of the event, should you wish to discuss anything with them.
