XL GLOBAL Group, headquartered in Aberdeen, Scotland, has recently created three new commercial roles to support its growing range of capabilities across its network of UK facilities.
The integrated engineering services provider, who has experienced a notable growth in its customer base following the expansion of the company’s commercial vehicle tail lift portfolio, has experienced a significant uplift in fabrication requirements for the Group’s ‘Skid’ based packages. Consequently, the senior management team in Forfar has been extended to welcome Graham Ellis as General Manager.
Working closely with the Group Engineering Lead Farid Arvani, Graham takes on responsibility for the evolution and enhancement of the site’s fabrication, machining and assembly. Graham’s background in both commercial and production roles across a number of the Group’s strategic industries being a significant factor in the appointment.
Elsewhere within the operation, Robert Walsh joins the business development team in the Group’s office in Runcorn, Cheshire. With a growing number of clients in the North-West of England, and further across the M62 corridor, Rob’s technical background in instrumentation and process engineering brings further capability and a local presence to the established sales team within the petrochemical, food & beverage, oil & gas and power distribution sectors.
Based at the headquarters in Blackburn, Aberdeenshire, Stuart McKibben brings a wealth of experience from a number of roles in the offshore energy sector, both in the North Sea and Internationally. As the sector continues to evolve through the integrations of new technologies, concepts and regulations, Stuart’s awareness and breadth of sales experience along with his technology partnership management capability is highly advantageous.

UK head of sales, Graeme Simpson, highlighted the importance of the three appointments within the Group’s cultural and commercial ambitions. He commented:
“We operate in a marketplace where people, and their capabilities are central to the successful fulfilment of our commercial ambitions. As a group, we have some ambitious growth targets. Client satisfaction and strong relationships set the foundation upon which we will continue to build on the encouraging forecasts and growth evident across all of the Group’s divisions.”
