Electronics manufacturer planning for 30 new jobs
The Journal
|June 27, 2025
ELECTRONICS manufacturing, assembly and test firm Arian EMS plans to create up to 30 new jobs following its acquisition by investor CorqAcq.
The undisclosed deal means the Ashington-based printed circuit board specialist comes under the ownership of the North West-based backer, which was founded by business magnate Simon Orange and sold earlier this year to Asda investor TDR Capital.
Now, 40-strong Arian is said to benefit from continued investment in its people, processes, and production capabilities.
Arian was founded in 2017 by Malcolm Humble, who saved a number of jobs after predecessor firm Infoteam ceased trading. He has retained a stake and will continue with Arian in a strategic role. The firm deals with complex electronic systems for a range of industries, including the automotive sector. Since launch it is said to have grown and earned a reputation for reliability, fast turnaround and high standards.
