HAV said it had opened an office at Cavendish Court in Doncaster to provide a base for employees while work got under way at the Carcroft Common site.
The manufacturer said its plans were aligned with the City of Doncaster’s Economic Strategy 2030 and the South Yorkshire Investment Zone, which aimed to improve investment through planning, development and skills support.
HAV CEO Nick Allman said: “As well as establishing a hub for advanced manufacturing and sustainable aviation in Doncaster, it will bring with it new opportunities, jobs and apprenticeships in South Yorkshire.”
Ros Jones, Mayor of Doncaster, said it was “great news” the firm would “make Doncaster its home”.
“Its presence in the city is an exciting first step in the next generation of air technology,” she said.
“This development will bring substantial investment and create highly skilled job opportunities, further strengthening Doncaster’s position as a hub for innovation and industry.”
