Working to a rolling five-year business plan, adi Group aims to grow turnover from its current level of £82 million to beyond the £200 million mark.
To do that, the firm wants to almost double its workforce to service blue chip clients, such as BAE Systems, across sectors including automotive, manufacturing, aerospace & defence and petrochemical.
The business was set up in 1990 by Alan Lusty, with a goal to create a ‘one-stop-shop’ for engineering services. By 1995, adi Group employed 18 engineers but, in five years, that figure grew to 70. Growth continued, and the pace quickened during the 2008 financial crisis when Mr Lusty invested in change leaders and senior management, seeing turnover grow from £12 million to £82 million and adi’s ranks grew from 370 to 630 between 2008 and today.
Group strategic account director, James Sopwith, said: “In order to achieve our strategic objectives, we must identify and attract engineers with the skills and outlook to drive our business forward.
“We’ve built a driven and dynamic culture here, and work hard to get it right the first time for our clients, so we’re looking for high calibre people, with core and advanced engineering skills and the values and mindset to enhance our growing team.”
With more than 30 specialist engineering divisions and ambitious growth plans, adi Group has opportunities in the future to devise and deliver robust client solutions as well as train the next generation of engineers.
