Specialist Recruitment. Deep Sector Knowledge.

For over 23 years, Protec Technical has placed engineers, technicians, and specialists in some of the world’s most demanding industries. We don’t just fill roles — we understand the work.

Technical recruitment done well requires more than a database and a phone. It requires consultants who understand what a B1.1 licence means, why a stress engineer’s experience on one aircraft family doesn’t automatically transfer to another, or what distinguishes a genuinely strong EV programme manager from a candidate who’s updated their CV to reflect the market.

That depth of knowledge is what Protec Technical has built over more than two decades. Founded in 2003 and a two-time winner of the Queen’s Award for International Trade, we operate across six specialist sectors — placing permanent, contract, and interim professionals from technician level to programme director, across the UK and internationally.

Explore our sectors below, or talk to our team about your requirement.

Aerospace

From satellite systems to programme engineering, we place aerospace specialists across every discipline — structures, avionics, systems, quality, NDT, and more. Our consultants understand the technical requirements behind each role, not just the job title. With a global network built over 22 years, we find the right engineers, wherever they are.

Aircraft maintenance

When an aircraft is on the ground, speed matters — and so does quality. We supply Part-66 and CAA licensed engineers, technicians, and maintenance management professionals to MROs, airlines, and operators worldwide. AOG response, planned programmes, or long-term contracts: we deliver.

Aircraft manufacture

Building aircraft to certification demands people who've done it before. We place structural fitters, composite technicians, quality engineers, systems installers, and production managers with OEMs, Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers, and specialist modification centres — contract or permanent, individual or full teams.

Defence

Security clearances, export controls, programme confidentiality: defence recruitment has constraints that most agencies don't fully understand. We do. Since 2003, we've been placing engineers and technical specialists in defence programmes across the UK and internationally — with the discretion and regulatory awareness the sector demands.
