The course was brilliant, to be honest. I think it was very productive and I learned a lot during that day… It is definitely a course that I’d recommend to other aspiring managers.

Neel Sandhu graduated in Mechanical Engineering from Maharshi Dayanand University in Rohtak, India before moving to the UK to gain his Masters in Advanced Engineering Design at Brunel University, London. After joining a graduate programme with National Grid, Neel decided to pursue his great love of aerospace and started working on the Airbus A350 aircraft. He was part of the team which designed and developed the galley equipment for the new wide-bodied aircraft.

Having explored other roles within the aerospace sector, Neel is now a Mechanical Design Engineer for Martin-Baker Aircraft Ltd. The company has been the world leader in the design and manufacture of ejection seats for fighter jets for over 70 years, supplying the majority of air forces worldwide. They also produce crashworthy seats for helicopters and fixed wing aircrafts. “I am part of the Product Safety department – I investigate and resolve (using 8D, engineering design, hand calculations, FEA, testing etc) the problems and incidents that are critical to the life or safety of the pilot, as well as manage various stakeholders. We believe that when an ejection seat may represent a crew member’s last chance to survive, there can be no compromise. To date we have saved 7691 lives.” Neel is mentoring a young engineer at Martin-Baker Aircraft and is also a STEM ambassador, volunteering in schools to promote the role of science and engineering to secondary school pupils.
