Northrop Grumman (headquartered in El Segundo, Calif.; www.northropgrumman.com), an aerospace and defense systems integration organization, plans to add approximately 100 engineering, manufacturing engineering and manufacturing support jobs to its manufacturing center in St. Augustine, Fla., by early summer 2005. The new jobs will be filled by current Northrop Grumman employees relocating from another company facility in Bethpage, N.Y., and local hires from the St. Augustine area. The decision to add employees was made after an internal business unit study identified the best way to organize and locate the engineering and manufacturing teams to optimize performance now and in the years ahead.
