Technical ability matters. But when hiring managers assess engineering candidates, they are often looking for more than technical knowledge alone. They want to understand: 💡 Can you solve real project challenges, not just describe systems or tools? ⚙️ Can you explain complex technical work clearly to different stakeholders? 📈 Can you show evidence of delivery, ownership, and impact? ⌛ Can you adapt when timelines, requirements, or priorities change? 📃 Can you work effectively across engineering, project, commercial, and operational teams? A strong CV should not just list responsibilities, projects, or software experience. It should show what you contributed, what changed because of your work, and why that work mattered. For engineering candidates, this means focusing on outcomes as well as technical responsibilities. The strongest candidates are not always the ones with the longest list of skills. They are often the ones who can clearly demonstrate how their experience helped deliver something valuable. Looking for your next engineering opportunity?

The defence talent pipeline needs rebuilding ⚙️   In the fourth article in our Defence Delivery Insights Series, we turn to the final takeaway from our recent Defence Delivery Roundtable with Fresh Eyes Consulting.   This final takeaway focuses on skills attrition, and the need to preserve, rebuild and sustain the knowledge base that underpins UK defence capability.   As experienced professionals retire or leave the sector, decades of specialist knowledge risk being lost.   At the same time, defence must compete harder to attract the next generation of engineering and technical talent.   Without the right people and skills in place, even the most ambitious defence strategies can struggle to move from intent to execution. 💡   In the full article, we explore why knowledge transfer, succession planning, talent attraction and clearer career pathways are critical to sustaining long-term capability.   🔗 Link to the full article in the comments 🔗   Follow ConSol Partners for the full Defence Delivery Insights Series 🚀   Andy Pearson, Ben Copperwheat BSc Eng Hons, Ian Storey, Terry Hart, Isabelle Roberts   #Defence #DefenceDelivery #DefenceRecruitment #EngineeringTalent #Engineering

Defence has entered a new era, and delivery mindsets need to catch up ⚙️ That is the focus of the third article in our Defence Delivery Insights Series, based on our recent Defence Delivery Roundtable with Fresh Eyes Consulting. This third takeaway looks at the behavioural shift required across defence organisations: greater ownership, clearer communication, outcome-led thinking, and the ability to balance urgency with good judgement. Delivering at pace does not mean constant activity for its own sake. It means knowing when to move quickly, when to make trade-offs, when “good enough” is good enough, and where safety, security and assurance remain non-negotiable. 💡 In the full article, we explore why mindset, accountability and pragmatism are critical to faster defence delivery, particularly as organisations across the supply chain face compressed timelines and rising expectations. 🔗 Link to the full article in the comments 🔗 Follow ConSol Partners for the full Defence Delivery Insights Series 🚀 Andy Pearson, Ben Copperwheat BSc Eng Hons, Ian Storey, Terry Hart, Isabelle Roberts #Defence #DefenceDelivery #DefenceSupplyChain #DefenceIndustry #DeliveryAtPace #Leadership #Recruitment

At our recent Defence Delivery Roundtable with Fresh Eyes Consulting, one of the clearest themes was the hidden cost of misalignment across the defence supply chain ⚙️ As part of Empresaria Group plc, we’re continuing the conversation through our Defence Delivery Insights Series. Our second takeaway looks at why alignment between customers, primes, suppliers, SMEs and delivery teams is critical to programme success 🔎 When people are not aligned around a shared purpose, the impact can show up in delayed programmes, unclear accountability, missed handovers, relationship resets and increased delivery risk. In the full article, we explore why people remain central to procurement, delivery and collaboration, and how stronger alignment across the supply chain can support faster, more effective delivery.

At our recent Defence Delivery Roundtable with Fresh Eyes Consulting, one of the clearest themes was the need for greater speed and proactivity across the defence supply chain. ⚙️ As part of Empresaria Group plc, we’re continuing the conversation through our Defence Delivery Insights Series. Our first takeaway looks at what happens when procurement, onboarding or information flow slows down, and the delivery window starts to compress. 🔎 The impact is often felt most by suppliers, particularly SMEs, who may be expected to deliver quickly after months of delay or uncertainty. In the full article, we explore what this means for customers, primes, suppliers and individuals, and how more proactive ways of working can support faster delivery.

Happy Pride Month!🌈   Pride is about visibility, courage, and progress, but also about everyday actions that create a sense of belonging.    In the workplace, it’s the small things - allyship, respect, and inclusive culture - that make a big difference.   Let’s keep building environments where everyone can thrive as their true selves.   #Pride #Inclusion #BeAnAlly #DiversityAndInclusion
