MacArtney makes two appointments
Underwater technology firm MacArtney has made two appointments with a focus on its offshore wind handling equipment.
Kevin Murray is the new Managing Director of MacArtney UK, based in Aberdeen, and Bjarne Siig will head MacArtney’s wind division in Denmark.
Murray, who only joined the company as Sales Director in March 2021, made his first contact with MacArtney at surface and subsea equipment firm CDL, as CDL was a MacArtney agent at the time.
He later moved to Ashtead Technology – another MacArtney agent at the time – where he spent a 10 years, rising to Sales Director before moving to MacArtney.
He takes over the position of Managing Director from Phil Middleton.
“I’m delighted to be able to take over from Phil, even after such a relatively short time with MacArtney,” said Murray. !We have worked closely together, and I have benefited enormously from the gradual transition combining our expertise and knowledge of the industry.”
MacArtney’s UK operations are one of the Group’s largest outside Denmark and offer the complete MacArtney range of underwater connectivity and technology products and solutions.
Siig will drive the handling and installation equipment division from his base in Denmark to take advantage of the burgeoning offshore wind sector.
“Our strength – and standing – lies in complete system solutions. We own and include all value chain steps from engineering, automation and production to service. We offer smart solutions bringing value to the customer,” Bjarne Siig said.
