Marine & Shipbuilding
The UK’s marine and shipbuilding industry underpins national defence and global trade. From building next-generation submarines to maintaining aircraft carriers, the sector demands specialist skills, secure clearances and unwavering quality. At the sharp end of these high-stakes projects, there’s no room for workforce gaps. That’s where Morson Edge steps in.
Every role must be filled with precision.
Meeting Marine & Shipbuilding Challenges
Shipbuilding projects face unique pressures:
- Critical skills shortages in welding, fabrication, systems engineering and combat systems.
- Strict security clearances and compliance standards that can delay mobilisation.
- Intense project timelines where delays drive up costs.
