The Shorterm Group is proud to be a part of the inspiring and brilliant Bloodhound SSC adventure. We recognise the vital need for support, education and investment to keep the engineering industry at the forefront in the UK, encourage innovation and inspire the next generation of engineers.
As a provider of specialist recruitment services to the engineering industry, we are delighted to have also contributed to the project professionally – Shorterm Group sourced the mechanical designer who developed the pedal box for Bloodhound, and worked on the fin design.
Through our expertise, experience and commitment, we’re perfectly placed to match the very best people with the very best jobs in engineering.
