Tewkesbury-based Helander Precision Engineering has been selected for Sharing in Growth (SiG), the government-backed supply chain competitiveness programme.

The company applied to join SiG as part of a strategy to grow its aerospace activities into a key strategic market, alongside nuclear and oil and gas. With SiG’s support, Helander now plans to expand its turnover in aerospace, with a strategy to secure 100 local jobs by taking turnover to £22m by 2022. The intense four-year £250m SiG training and development programme focuses on leadership, culture and strategy. Helander’s initial priorities on the SiG programme will include designing a new factory layout to increase efficiency.
