have you tried places like Augusta-Westland, BAE etc, what are you qualifications?
I'm doing an apprenticship for QinetiQ after 2 years at college doin maths and physics A levels, most companies, unless you have a lot of experience will want to re train you as such.
I work at Agusta-Westland
Rolls Royce have a site in Derby dont they?, is that much of a trek from MK?
if not pop in and see what they can offer, obviously the apprentice recruiting period has finished for this year, but they might be able to offer you something.
I'll say RR have a site in Derby - 10,000 staff.
According to The industry Forum and the SABC, there are over 10,000 companies who supply to the big boys like Aircelle, RR, GOODRICH, AEC, RR, BAE, GKN, Airbus, Parker, Eaton, ITP, ASSYSTEM, TRW, etc
I'm a contractor and on a nine month project at Derby that finishes in October, but hoping for an extention. Agencies I've used in the past include : Morson, Alex Mann, MPI but there are loads out there. Look at going temp, as the money is good, and the work out there. Remember that RR have just launched the trent 1000 for the Boeing Dream Liner and are in the middle of the biggest engine they've ever done for airbus, and they are looking to increase capacity by erm lots of %.
If you need a place to stay Derby is cheap, and my landlord is trying to rent out a double for £300 a month.
