Today, we are pleased to welcome Duncan Anderson as Chair of Ferguson Marine.

With over 40 years’ experience as a Chartered Marine Engineer, Duncan brings a wealth of shipbuilding and ship operations experience. Duncan’s appointment as permanent chair of the Board follows serving as a Non-Executive Director of Ferguson Marine since March 2025.

Graeme Thomson, CEO of Ferguson Marine, said: 

“Under Duncan’s leadership, we will continue to modernise our shipyard, improve governance and sharpen our operational delivery.

“I am certain that with Duncan at the helm, our Board and senior leadership team are well-positioned to secure the future of Ferguson Marine and will guide us successfully into this next chapter.”

Duncan was a Non-Executive Director on the Ferguson Marine Board, starting in March 2025, before being appointed Interim Chair.

Duncan Anderson, the now permanent Chair of Ferguson Marine, said:

“As incoming Chair of the Board, my focus is clear; transform Ferguson Marine into a modern, efficient and profitable shipyard. 

“I look forward to continuing to support the management team to establish its strategic direction that will enable it to compete confidently, secure new contracts and build a sustainable pipeline of work.”

This is another important step forward for Ferguson Marine as we seek to modernise our shipyard, improve delivery and secure new contracts to build a sustainable pipeline.
