Chorley-based Lyndhurst Precision Engineering has recruited two new engineers, bolstering its skilled team of skilled professionals, including one from Dubai.
Jon and Andy join as a result of continued demand for Lyndhurst’s industry-leading engineering services for the defence sector. The appointments are a result of Lyndhurst’s continual expansion across departments, since the firm is also looking for more skilled CNC professionals as well as millers.
Jon Clarke recently worked in Dubai for a number of years, and also with several multi-national defence firms, where he expanded his experience, knowledge and skill set on innovative and strategically key projects. Andy Wilding joins as a Project Manager, utilising his extensive experience with global aerospace engineering companies and bringing considerable expertise within the renewable energy sector. Both men will focus on delivering a major defence project, recently won by Lyndhurst.
Mark Marriner, managing director, Lyndhurst, said: “We are delighted to welcome both Jon and Andy to the Lyndhurst Precision Engineering team. Both these highly skilled and qualified mechanical designers will be valuable assets for us, as we deliver a major defence project for an international client.”
Jon added: “I was lured from Dubai to Lyndhurst as I knew about their fantastic reputation in the engineering industry. The work the Lyndhurst team does is highly regarded around the world and I feel privileged to be part of the team.”
Mark added: “We are continuously expanding our team of engineering professionals and consequently are still looking for more mechanical designers and skilled CNC operatives, as well as millers to join our team here in Chorley.”
Andy commented: “I’ve been a customer of Lyndhurst Precision Engineering for roughly 20 years now and have always had a good working relationship with the team. The opportunity to be involved with Lyndhurst’s journey was one I couldn’t miss. The varied work and fast pace of the company is something I’ve always wanted to be involved with.”
