LEADING EUROPEAN ENGINEERING SERVICES PROVIDER APPOINTS GROUP TECHNICAL DIRECTOR

Suir Engineering Ltd, one of Europe’s leading engineering services providers headquartered in Ireland, has appointed chartered engineer Stephen Robinson to the position of Group Technical Director. Based in the company’s Manchester office, Stephen will be responsible for Suir Engineering’s technical strategy in Ireland, the UK, and Europe as the company marks 40 years in business.

Stephen worked for regional and multi-national consultants, including WSP, designing and leading projects and teams across the UK, Ireland, and the Middle East before moving into contracting. His appointment at Suir Engineering follows his tenure as Northern Regional Director with full P&L accountability at Briggs and Forrester Engineering Services, which followed 11 years in leadership design and delivery at NG Bailey.

An experienced chartered engineer, Stephen’s extensive skill set, and diverse multi-market background, provide him with valuable experiences and insights that he will bring to his role at Suir Engineering. He will oversee the company’s internal design, BIM, engineering, digital and planning functions. He will provide technical governance, strategy, and guidance to these functions as Suir Engineering continues to expand its client portfolio and grow in line with the overall business strategy.

Brendan Moley, Chief Operations Officer at Suir Engineering, said: “An experienced industry professional, Stephen Robinson will play a pivotal and driving role in our expansion across the UK and in new and emerging markets for the business. Innovative experts of Stephen’s calibre are vital when there’s such a need for improved electricity infrastructure and the adoption of new technologies, for example, the rise in adoption of liquid-based cooling solutions within the Data Centre market by our clients.”

Stephen, who has also joined Suir Engineering’s newly established Sustainability Committee, said: “I have been impressed by the technical capability of the people at Suir Engineering, who apply their considerable knowledge and expertise to its four key sectors and client projects. I’m looking forward to working with and developing these teams further, specifically with our expansion into new and emerging markets and sectors across Europe.”

Headquartered in Waterford, Ireland, and with offices in Dublin, London, Stockholm, Copenhagen and Frankfurt, Suir Engineering has grown over 40 years to become one of Europe’s leading providers of electrical, mechanical and instrumental engineering services. It operates in four core sectors: life sciences, energy, power and renewables, food and beverage and data centres.
