The investment in regional offices not only supports future growth but also reinforces Filtronic's commitment to fostering UK-based engineering excellence in the RF and mmWave sectors.\n \n \n \"Our ability to scale our engineering and programme management teams is a clear indication of Filtronic's momentum,\" said Nat Edington, CEO of Filtronic. \"We are investing in talent, infrastructure and leadership to ensure we continue delivering high-performance, bespoke solutions to our customers. As we grow, we remain committed to excellence in design, execution, and service.\"\n \n \n As part of this strategic expansion, Filtronic continues to actively recruit engineers, project managers and technical specialists across multiple UK locations.
