Aberdeen-based EnerMech, a global integrated solutions specialist, has appointed Steven Muir to the newly created post of IT director.

He joins the company which provides services to the international energy and infrastructure sectors, from pre-commissioning through operations and maintenance and late-life support/decommissioning, from Stork, where he was director of group technology and operations and IT business partner for UK, ME and APAC regions. Previously he led and managed IT Functions across multiple different industry sectors including education, technology and biotech.

EnerMech is embarking on a period of transformation and expansion and Mr Muir will focus on ensuring the business’s IT and systems infrastructure remains at the cutting edge.

He has more than 25 years’ experience of leading IT strategy, managing multi-million-pound budgets, delivering change and transformation projects and global integrations.

Mr Muir will be responsible for enhancing EnerMech’s technology components as the company strengthens its entry into the renewables and infrastructure sectors while maintaining its leading position in its traditional oil and gas markets.

EnerMech’s CEO Christian Brown said: “To achieve our strategy of rolling out EnerMech’s specialist integrated services portfolio across the green energy and infrastructure spaces we will rely heavily on a robust and fit-for-purpose IT framework.

“Steven had the credentials and the experience to support our engineers, technicians, business development specialists and support staff in helping to make this vision a reality.”

Mr Muir said: “My experience of working in a fast-moving global services environment is a good fit for EnerMech and I am proud to be joining at a time when the business is preparing for a new generation of growth in well-established and new markets.”
