We’re delighted to announce a £3.6 million investment that will create 25 new jobs and support our growth across Great Britain and Ireland. 🎉
Over the next three years our team will grow from 29 to 54 people, with new roles in engineering, manufacturing and management. Invest Northern Ireland has offered £125,000 towards the creation of the new roles.
The investment will increase our manufacturing capacity, bring more processes in-house and develop our industrial filtration product range. It includes our recently acquired and refurbished premises near Ahoghill.
William Ross, Managing Director, said: “This investment reflects the confidence we have in the future growth of our business. Over the last few years, we have transformed from a small maintenance-focused operation into a multi-disciplinary engineering manufacturer serving customers across several sectors.”
“Demand for our industrial filtration and engineered solutions continues to grow as businesses seek to improve efficiency and meet increasingly stringent environmental requirements. This investment will enhance our capabilities, increase capacity and support our expansion into Great Britain and Ireland, creating high-quality jobs in the local area. Invest NI’s continued support has helped us build the foundations for this next phase of sustainable growth.”
Iain Joannides, Head of Regional Business, Eastern Region, Invest NI, said: “Ross Companies is an example of the ambition and innovation we see among our Eastern Region client base. Since first engaging with our Eastern Regional team, the company has consistently demonstrated its ability to identify growth opportunities, invest strategically and deliver strong results.”
Since 2019 our turnover has grown from £345,000 to around £3.78 million, and we expect it to pass £5 million over the next two years. Bringing more work in-house will also make us more resource efficient and less reliant on outsourced manufacturing, and our filtration solutions help customers improve their own environmental performance. 🌱
A huge thank you to our brilliant team, our customers and Invest NI for their support. Interested in joining us? Email jobs@rosscompanies.co.uk.
