Darren’s passion for aerospace began as a young child, and led to his studies at the University of Bath and a distinguished career in the Royal Navy as an Air Engineer Officer. His military journey took him through operational squadron tours and key roles in Navy Command Headquarters, the Military Aviation Authority (MAA) and Defence Equipment & Support (DE&S). In 2022, he brought his wealth of experience to SSTL, and we're honoured to have him lead our Defence activities – a growing part of our business – into the future.
"It’s incredible to see how far SSTL has come as a company and as an industry.” Says Darren. “SSTL’s commitment to innovation in the space domain is inspirational and I am really excited about harnessing this innovation to deliver the future defence space ambitions of the UK and our allies."
