Airbus is proud to have supported Women in Defence UK since its inception and once again in 2025 as the Pankhurst Inspire Sponsor.
At Airbus, we are committed to building an inclusive and diverse workplace - one that welcomes everyone and empowers individuals to thrive. We believe that a diverse workforce fosters innovation, enhances problem-solving - and drives value for our customers, society and employees alike.
We strive to create a safe and inclusive culture where collaboration, empowerment, continuous learning and accountability are at the core of how we work.
It is vital that we recognise the commitment, resilience and exceptional achievements of women across the defence sector, both in the military and in industry. Through these awards, we have the opportunity to celebrate outstanding examples of leadership and teamwork. We honour their contributions and remain steadfast in our support for all women in defence.
