More ‘hands on deck’ at Actisense as turnover growth continues

Poole marine electronics company, Actisense, has hired two new engineers after continued international growth.

Actisense saw a successful year of business in 2018, which has continued in the first half of 2019, with turnover increasing by 30%. This is largely due to their continued international trade with 45 countries and the launch of their innovative Wi-Fi gateway, the W2K-1.

Building on the company’s growth, Actisense has recently hired two new members of staff. The new team members for 2019 include Nidhi Sharma and Aidan Batten. They will be responsible for ensuring that Actisense has the capacity to handle the increase in orders for their marine electronics, maintaining the expected high quality of products and providing support for senior members of staff.

One of the first hires of 2019 was Nidhi Sharma, who joined Actisense in April and works as a Test Engineer. She is responsible for testing the firmware of Actisense products and using her extensive knowledge of programming languages to ensure the software of each product works.

Nidhi said: “Actisense is a growing company, are known as leaders in the marine electronics industry and I am glad to be part of the company. I hope to help ensure the strong Actisense reputation continues to grow.”

Joining Nidhi, Actisense has also welcomed Aidan Batten as a Junior Hardware Engineer.

Aidan recently finished a degree in Electronic Engineering at the University of Portsmouth and will work alongside the senior members of Actisense’s hardware team whilst he develops his workplace experience.

Phil Whitehurst, CEO of Actisense, said: “The growth of Actisense has allowed us to hire three extremely talented, young, and enthusiastic new members of staff who I’m very pleased to welcome to the team. The new team members will enable further growth in the company and ensure our quality marine electronics continue to innovate and transform the industry.”
