New chief executive appointed at Ross-Shire Engineering
Ross-Shire Engineering (RSE) has appointed a new chief executive, to drive forward the growth of the UK-wide group.
Stephen Slessor is set to take on the top role, after moving from the role of managing director at Galliford Try.
Current chief executive Iain MacGregor will remain an executive director at RSE and a significant shareholder in the Group.
Commenting on the new appointment, Mr MacGregor said: “I am delighted to be welcoming Stephen into the RSE family at such an exciting time. We have enjoyed considerable growth in the last four years, turning a £60m service company in Scotland to a £250m+ technical specialist that services clients in the water sector across the UK.
“Demand for innovation to meet the needs of the water sector is positioning RSE for further growth. We believe that bringing Stephen’s skills, experience and energy into the business will help guide RSE with our growth plans and realise the full potential of our modular solutions across UK and International markets.”
Mr Slessor added: “I’m thankful to GT for the opportunity afforded me in my previous role.
“It’s an exciting time to be joining RSE and it fulfils my entrepreneurial aspirations to build something unique and game changing in the water sector – a true disruptor. RSE’s differentiated technical offering, including its modular approach to water treatment, will shape the future of the sector in the UK and abroad.
“I’m pleased to now be part of this and look forward to working with my new colleagues when I join in January.”
