Luerssen Australia has announced it has appointed a new Project Director, David Miller, for the Arafura Class Offshore Patrol Vessel Program.
Prior to joining Luerssen Australia, Miller worked closely on a number of Defence projects, including the design and build of the ANZAC Class Frigates and the re-design of a commercial tanker into HMAS Sirius.
The company added that Miller has also been involved in the design, structural remediation and in-service support of many other vessel types in Australia. Most recently, he has been consulting within the Defence sector and previously served as the Executive General Manager – Defence at Serco Asia Pacific.
“We are very pleased to have David on board with us at Luerssen Australia. He brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the Program and we are looking forward to working together to deliver formidable vessels for the Royal Australian Navy,” said Luerssen Australia Chief Executive Officer, Jens Nielsen.
“I am happy to join Luerssen Australia as the new Project Director, particularly with some key milestones coming up,” Miller said. “I look forward to working closely with the team as well as Defence to deliver a successful Program.”
