With more than 25 years of oil and gas industry experience, Ecosse said Gillespie has held senior technical, commercial and contractual management roles in Technip, CSL, GE Oil & Gas, Centrica and Talisman. More recently, he was managing director of PDi Ltd., and Aberdeen-based engineering and project management consultancy.
The appointment aims to strengthen the management team and introduce new skills needed to accelerate the business through the next level of growth, according to Ecosse funder Mike Wilson.
