“Additional investment has recently been injected into the business to purchase a further six CNC machine tools to increase our capacity and capabilities.

“It is also our intention to participate in local apprenticeship programmes to support future labour market requirements within the industry.”

The majority of the new jobs created will be skilled machinists, supported by management and administrative support staff. The company will specialise in low to medium volume precision machined components and high volume products targeting markets like oil and gas, process industries and medical industries.

One North East director of business and industry Ian Williams said: “Offshore engineering continues to be a growth industry in the North East and I’m sure Teesside Precision Engineering Limited will become a successful supply chain company. This investment offers high quality job opportunities for skilled employees in the Tees Valley and I would like to wish the company the best of luck in this exciting new venture.”
