Richard said on his appointment: “There has never been a more exciting time to join Survitec. Its decades-long reputation of being a high-end equipment supplier to the defence and aerospace industries is further strengthened as it evolves into a service partner to these sectors. I am delighted to be joining Survitec and a high-performing sales team that is well-positioned to further increase our international growth, global order intake and increased revenues.”
