Global ship repair, conversion and marine specialist A&P Group has announced the appointment of a new Group IT Manager.
Based at A&P Group’s Tyne facility, Mike Adamson takes the role after joining the business as Interim IT Manager in March this year.

Mike’s expertise will bring huge value to the group and we welcome him to the business.”
