Scitech Engineering Opens New Cardiff Base

Construction News Image
Industry consultancy, Scitech Engineering, has opened a new office in Cardiff.

The company, which specialises in the life sciences sector, has moved to the city as part of an expansion programme following a package of Welsh Government support.

Established in 2002, Scitech provides design, engineering, construction and validation services for the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. It has over 130 employees with turnover of £18 million.

The move was secured partly as a result of the Welsh Government's offer of continued financial support over three years which will help to secure an additional 20 skilled and well paid jobs.

Economy Secretary Ken Skates said: "I am delighted that following an offer of Welsh Government support, Scitech has chosen Cardiff as the location for its new office, bringing with it 20 highly skilled and well paid jobs.

"As set out in my Economic Action Plan, these are exactly the types of jobs we are keen to attract to Wales in order to future proof our economy and build the strong foundations that we need to ensure inclusive economic growth."

Dave Grant, Managing Director at Scitech, said "Welsh Government financial initiatives and support have been a key driver for Scitech to locate in the region. When assessed against other locations, the interest and confidence shown in Scitech by the Welsh Government team provided the motivation to commit to a Wales-based site for our expansion."
