Meet the team: David

I've been part of the GKN Aerospace team for around 15 years now, initially joining in quite a technical role - as an aerodynamic engineer. I loved my work. It gave me the chance to put what I had learned at university in to practice.

Now, I work with technology management. I'm really excited about the work I'm involved in. Exploring new technology to identify what new innovation will enable us to stand out in the market and seeing that through from initial idea stage to delivery to the customer is really rewarding.

Making aviation greener is incredibly important to me. I believe that it's a key tool in enabling people across the world to come together and share experiences, ideas and insights.

Another really important aspect of what we do is to utilise technology to make air travel more sustainable. I want my children and grandchildren to have the opportunity to travel the world, just like I have been able to do. Making aviation greener is incredibly important to me. I believe that it's a key tool in enabling people across the world to come together and share experiences, ideas and insights.

I think about my role and my professional development as part of wider team - one that stretches across the world. I feel like I'm part of something bigger.
