Project Engineer Placement Students 2026/27

CCP Gransden Advanced Composites is delighted to welcome two Project Engineer placement students from Queen's University Belfast as part of their year-long industrial placements.

Tom Rowlatt-McCormick, who is studying Mechanical Engineering, and Emily Arthur, who is studying Aerospace Engineering, have joined the company's engineering team and will spend the next year gaining valuable industry experience within a leading advanced composites manufacturing environment.

During their placement, Tom and Emily will work closely with CCP Gransden's engineering and production teams, supporting a range of customer programmes from development through to manufacture. The placement will provide exposure to advanced composite manufacturing processes, programme delivery, quality requirements, and the day-to-day activities involved in supplying components to aerospace, defence, and other high-performance industries.

By working alongside experienced engineers and manufacturing specialists, they will have the opportunity to apply the knowledge gained during their studies in a practical setting while developing a broader understanding of industrialisation, production processes, and project delivery within a fast-paced manufacturing environment.

Supporting the development of future engineering talent remains an important part of CCP Gransden's commitment to the industry. Industrial placements provide students with valuable real-world experience while helping to develop the skills needed to support the next generation of engineers and manufacturing professionals.

Everyone at CCP Gransden extends a warm welcome to Tom and Emily, and we look forward to supporting them throughout the year and seeing the contribution they make to the business.

Welcome to the team, Tom and Emily.
