BUSINESS MINISTER TAKES TOUR OF FACILITIES
August 24, 2018
We were delighted to host a short visit to our Lerwick facilities by Jamie Hepburn, the Scottish minister for Business, Fair work and Skills.
We had interesting discussions around our apprenticeship scheme and encouraging young people into vocational pathways to employment in engineering. The minister spent time talking to some of our apprentices and had a look at the dive support pontoon we are constructing to take to the Antarctica for our work at Rothera. We had a positive chat about the various challenges we encounter running our business and even found time for some photo opportunities!
