Martin has been with the company for 24 years and has been instrumental in the growth of Sorion. Having previously held the roles of Project Engineer, Workshop Manager, Purchasing Manager and Operations Manager within Sorion, Martin’s depth of knowledge and experience are a huge asset to the company.
