About the Employer

BOEING UNITED KINGDOM LIMITED
In October 2018, we opened the Boeing production facility in Sheffield – our first manufacturing site in Europe. The £40 million, 6,200-square-metre facility is located on Sheffield Business Park, in South Yorkshire, not far from the Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre with Boeing (AMRC). We make more than 100 different high-tech actuation system components for the 737, from raw materials sourced in the UK. These components are used on the trailing edge of the wings. Trailing edge actuation systems are responsible for extending and retracting the wing’s flaps during different phases of flight. The flaps add lift to enable take-off and landing at lower speeds, and provide drag to help slow the aircraft. Boeing Sheffield is part of a broader plan to increase in-house manufacturing of key actuation components and systems in the U.S. and the UK and enhancing production efficiency. The components made in Sheffield are shipped to our facility in Portland, Oregon, for assembly.
