Sigma Leadership Programme

No other leadership programme can be talked about in the same breath as BAE Systems' Sigma programme. Not when you consider the qualities and potential it looks for in its members. Not when you look at the demands it makes on those who do get through its rigorous selection process. And certainly not when you see the exceptional rewards and prospects that await those who can last the pace of an intensive and extensive learning experience.

Sigma is not for everyone – just a small number of high-calibre graduates and professionals have what it takes to become the leaders in our global business. This can be achieved via two routes: our engineering framework, which uniquely supports you to remain an engineer as you move into a leadership role; and our business framework, which is tailored specifically to our business functions.

Sponsored directly at board level, the scheme represents a major long-term investment, both by us in terms of your development, and by you in terms of the time and effort you will need to put in. You will need the drive and energy to create opportunities and question the accepted – but if you rise to the challenge, the opportunities are unrivalled.
