Osprey Group, a UK operator of heavy mobile cranes and flat-top barges has boosted its heavy lift division leadership with the appointment of Simon Massey. 

Massey joins Osprey Group as new managing director of the heavy lift division with more than 35 years of experience in the industry. He joins Osprey Group from Sarens UK. He also held positions in Weldex and DeMag, where he earned a reputation and respect from clients and competitors.

Massey’s experience will stand Osprey in good stead, “This is something I’ve been building up to – leading a team of people who want to find new ways we can use heavy lift equipment, safely, for the much larger and heavier assets we’re having to transport and install now, in every sector.”

Osprey Group has opened new premises in the UK recently, and is deploying its owner-operated fleet of cranes, barges, and SPMTs in support of ever-more complex projects. “I’m looking forward to engaging with clients as soon as possible on their plans, to show how our heavy lift equipment can be configured and deployed in ways that can even reduce project costs.”
