Washington’s good transportation connectivity and space for purpose-built plants have attracted a robust manufacturing core in consumables, including electronics and paper. Advanced manufacturing and engineering are also well-represented with a £30 million Rolls-Royce aerospace & defence facility and BAE Systems ensconsed here. Nissan’s flagship UK assembly operation in Sunderland is in the vicinity.
The traditional industrial heritage, and ancestral links to George Washington, are celebrated in the ‘F’ Pit Museum and Washington Old Hall, creating openings in heritage, arts & culture.
The town is served by the NHS Foundation Trust Spire Washington Hospital, bringing roles in health & social care. A Washington campus of Sunderland College, along with numerous learning establishments, yield good opportunities in education. Further positions are in logistics, construction, real-estate, technology and travel, hospitality & leisure. A community of business & professional services providers in accountancy and legal services complete the commercial landscape.
