Colin Hillier

CEO

A graduate in Aeronautics & Astronautics from Southampton University and with previous experience in the Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm, Colin has over 15 years experience in the defence industry.

Colin started in simulation and training with Leonardo Helicopters (then Westlands), where he led the design, development and implementation of advanced mission training systems. As a result of this work, Colin was seconded into Niteworks (a UK government research and decision support agency) as the project lead for the Aviation Simulation project – a key component to the UK MoD’s training transformation initiative.

Since leaving Leonardo, Colin has grown and led a number of defence technology companies, supporting their growth in the UK and Europe.

Always on the lookout for a new challenge, heading up Mission Decisions is no different and an exciting chance to make a positive change in the defence and government community.

What you might not know about Colin: Colin has an unhealthy obsession with attempting to ‘electrify everything’, including old cars.
