Welcoming the Newest Member of the Team

This month, we welcome Ian Childs, who joins us at Frewer Engineering as a Principal Engineer. Ian brings a host of experience across a broad range of engineering disciplines, having delivered projects in the marine, rail, renewables, and oil and gas sectors throughout his career.
 
Ian supports the assurance and optimisation of complex structures, with his expertise in structural analysis, including stress, fatigue, fracture, and nonlinear response. His knowledge and practical insight further strengthen our technical capability and service offering.
 
Ian has already begun contributing to our growing project delivery team, and his experience, and considered approach make him a strong addition to the business.
 
We are pleased to have Ian on the team and look forward to the positive impact he will continue to make.

Exhibiting at DPRTE

Next month, our Managing Director, Richard Lock, will be attending DPRTE to showcase Frewer Engineering’s capabilities. Richard and members of the team will be at the event on 25–26 March, ready to connect with customers and partners across the defence supply chain.
 
DPRTE provides a valuable forum for defence procurement buyers to meet leading suppliers and explore specialist support. We’ll be highlighting our design and analysis engineering services, and how Frewer Engineering helps organisations tackle complex engineering challenges with offerings from targeted analysis support through to broader programme delivery.
 
If you’re attending DPRTE and would like to discuss how we can support your business, please reach out to us via LinkedIn, or come and find Richard at our stand M13 (part of the Make UK Defence Pavillion). We look forward to seeing you there.
