Boseley said the award was an unexpected, but very pleasant surprise.
“It is great to be recognised for the important work that we do on the MRH90 multi-role helicopter which has such a vital role to play within the Australian Defence Force,” Boseley said in a statement.
Airbus Group Australia Pacific managing director Jens Goennemann said he hoped Boseley’s award would inspire other women considering a career in the aerospace industry.
