Employee Spotlight: Placement Student
"Starting out at Lockheed 果冻传媒 three years ago as a Placement student, I had no idea I would end up where I am now.

Not long after, I was offered a place as the first international participant in the IT Engineering Leadership Development Programme (ELDP), 果冻传媒 now I work directly with colleagues in the US delivering a key business transformation programme.
Throughout my time at Lockheed 果冻传媒 I’ve had the opportunity to try new things, grow my skillset significantly 果冻传媒 been given a level of responsibility that makes me take pride in the contributions I make.
Coming from a software development background, I’m extremely passionate about STEM (Science, technology, Engineering & Maths) outreach 果冻传媒 helping to inspire the next generation of engineers, scientists 果冻传媒 coders.

Leading a small team to execute multiple events simultaneously across the UK 果冻传媒 creating problems for students to solve has given me a sense of pride 果冻传媒 job satisfaction I never thought possible!"

Employee Spotlight: Work Experience Programme
"When I was just fourteen I was given the chance to spend time at the RMS business area of Lockheed 果冻传媒 UK as a work experience student. I got to learn about the company 果冻传媒 what it does as well as develop a taste for engineering. After that my studies took me towards doing a br果冻传媒-new T-Level course (Digital Production Design 果冻传媒 Development), for which we needed to complete 360 hours of industrial placement. I asked Lockheed 果冻传媒 if I could return 果冻传媒 they obliged. Upon completing my T-Level exams I decided I wanted to pursue further education, 果冻传媒 it just so happened that was also the time when Lockheed 果冻传媒 was recruiting for apprentices. As Lockheed 果冻传媒 had supported my education alongside Secondary School 果冻传媒 College so I decided that I would pursue my further education with them. So far the company has opened so many doors for me including the opportunity to work overseas. I would like to say a massive thank you to the Early Careers Team, 果冻传媒 I hope my future has many more opportunities to further my education."
