Fast-expanding AMufacture appoints new finance chief

Andrew Jameson, new chief finanical officer at AMufacture

Portsmouth‑based advanced manufacturing specialist AMufacture has strengthened its leadership team with the appointment of Andrew Jameson as chief financial officer. He brings a wealth of senior financial and corporate advisory experience across sectors including oil and gas, construction, renewable technology, hospitality and private equity.

AMufacture chief executive Craig Pyser said the appointment was a key step forward for the company, which has grown to become the leading contract manufacturer in the additive manufacturing (AM) industry. He added: “Andrew’s experience across high‑growth, multi‑sector organisations brings exactly the kind of strategic financial leadership we need as we continue to grow. His track record in guiding businesses through expansion, investment and transformation will be invaluable as we scale our operations and strengthen our position in the market. We’re delighted to have him on board.”

Mr Jameson said: “I really like the fact that AMufacture is taking something which has historically been focused on prototyping and is bringing it into mainstream contract manufacturing — there is a real growth opportunity here. There is a genuine acceptance in the marketplace that 3-D printing is a credible manufacturing process and the business is extremely well positioned to take advantage of that.”

Andrew’s experience includes being part owner and finance director of a house building business, finance director of a £100 million multi-subsidiary facility support group and interim chief financial officer for a fintech company undertaking a private equity investment round. His career spans mergers and acquisitions, private equity transactions, debt and equity funding and strategic financial management across a wide range of industries.

The appointment comes at a pivotal time for AMufacture as the company continues to expand its capabilities, team and customer base in response to rising demand for AM solutions. AMufacture, backed by investment from Maven Capital and Turner, has increased its manufacturing capacity seven-fold in the past two years.
