Lorien Engineering Solutions (LES) has appointed a new managing director.
Steve Slater will pick up the reins from David Morris, who is retiring after 10 years at the helm of the Lichfield-based engineering design and project management company.
Dave, who is 60 years old and is retiring to spend more time with his family, said: “I have truly enjoyed my time working at LES. Over the years we have developed a strong management team that has allowed us to steadily grow the company.
