User Experience Designer jobs in United Kingdom

Indra Park Air work with customers all over the globe to make air travel safer. For over 50 years we’ve been one of the leading producers of VHF and UHF radios, providing the vital link between the ground and the air for passenger, freight and military aircraft.

The reasons behind our success are simple and won’t change. First, we work harder for the customer than the rest. We take time to truly know their needs and create the right product for them. We train them how to use it, we won’t let our equipment be deployed until every detail is right, and then we provide the best care and service for all of our products as long as they are still used.

At Indra Park Air we stay the best by looking to the future – to new requirements and new possibilities. A radio remains a radio but we never stop thinking about how we can improve it, how we make it and how it can offer more to our customers. It’s no wonder that we are one of only 2% of companies worldwide to hold PLATINUM Level in Investors in People Accreditation.
