Key Employers

Derby has been at the forefront of transport developments, particularly in the rail and aerospace industries.

The city maintains its reputation as the UK's leading Hi Technology City in terms of employment with internationally renowned companies including Rolls-Royce (aero engine and nuclear divisions), Bombardier Transportation and Royal Crown Derby.

Derby continues to demonstrate robust growth within a balanced economy. The established railway and aerospace industries remain a crucial part of Derby's success, attracting significant expansion of the transport manufacturing sector with the arrival of Toyota.

Derby's diverse economy promotes the city as a dynamic and versatile commercial, retail and leisure environment, signified by the shift towards the service sector with the arrival of companies within the telecommunications and knowledge based industries such as Prudential Banking plc (egg), Software AG and Roscom.
