Stuart has been recruited to operate our new HIAB truck and also brings with him skills in the fitting department, having worked in the engineering and agricultural sector.

Declan McMeekin (left) – Multi-skilled Engineer.

Declan is a familiar face to the group, having previously served his time as a CNC Miller at Zeus Engineering before moving to Australia. He joins the machine shop team here at Argon to further his previous experience and develop his skills.

We wish them both every success in their careers with the AGZ Group!

Tom McDonald has hung up his boots, after 48 years at Zeus Engineering.

Everyone at AGZ Group would like to thank Tam for his hard work and dedication over the years and wish him a very happy and healthy retirement.

We asked him for a few words – “I would just like to say the last 48 years have been varied, some really good times and some hard times, but on the whole Zeus has been very good to me and the workmates I’ve had have been the best you could ask for. I am off into the sunset now to put my feet up. But, I’ll be back!”
