Hardide PLC is an AIM Listed company specialising in advanced surface coating technologies that significantly extend the life of components used in industries like oil and gas, aerospace and precision engineering. Its CEO, Phil Kirkham, first came across First Flight at a conference for AIM companies, at which both companies were exhibiting. ‘We needed some general advice about NEDs,’ Phil said. ‘And it was clearly a subject that First Flight were experts in.’ Jan brings a wealth of relevant industry and Director level experience, both in the UK and internationally to Hardide PLC. Her experience and connections in some of their key markets will be especially valuable.
