Nasmyth welcomes Jason Whittle as new Supply Chain Director

Jason Whittle has been named Supply Chain Director for Nasmyth

Nasmyth has welcomed Jason Whittle as its new Supply Chain Director. Whittle started his career as an engineering apprentice at Nasmyth with the Henton engineering team before moving into production control and purchasing. A career move to Sigma Components saw him implementing a purchasing system as the company rapidly expanded its facilities to support Rolls-Royce engine pipes. Whittle has also held various supply chain roles in EMEA within Meggitt supporting global distribution and MRO hubs. During this period he also studied Global Supply Chain Management with Rolls-Royce at Nottingham and Southampton Universities.

Whittle commented on his new role:
“I started my career at Nasmyth with an apprenticeship and I am pleased to be returning. I am looking forward to working with our supply chain to deliver significant growth over the next 2 years.”
Tony Upton, CEO of Nasmyth said:
“The Nasmyth team are looking forward to working with Jason as we build greater resilience in our supply chain to better support our customers’ expectations”.

Established in December 2003, Nasmyth brings together in a single effective team the collective expertise, resources and technology of the customer-orientated, precision engineering businesses. Nasmyth currently employs over 450 highly experienced and specialist industry professionals.
