AMufacture Appoints Andrew Jameson as CFO to Oversee Sevenfold Capacity Expansion

Portsmouth-based contract manufacturer AMufacture has appointed Andrew Jameson as Chief Financial Officer to manage the company's financial strategy following a sevenfold increase in production capacity over the past two years. Supported by investors Maven Capital and Turner, the firm is transitioning its business model from traditional prototyping toward high-volume, end-use additive manufacturing. CEO Craig Pyser stated that Jameson, who brings experience from the oil, gas, and fintech sectors, will lead the financial operations required to sustain this rapid scaling of manufacturing infrastructure and customer acquisition.

This appointment highlights the increasing requirement for professional financial oversight within the contract manufacturing segment of the additive industry. As AM service providers move beyond low-volume prototyping into production-grade manufacturing, they face significant capital expenditure requirements for hardware and facility upgrades. AMufacture competes with established service bureaus that are increasingly adopting industrial-grade systems to meet stringent quality and repeatability standards. The ability to manage cash flow during aggressive capacity expansion is a critical differentiator for firms attempting to capture market share in the industrial manufacturing supply chain.

Jameson must now align AMufacture's financial structure with the operational realities of high-throughput additive production. For the company, success depends on maintaining high machine utilization rates and optimizing material costs as they scale. Buyers and industrial partners should evaluate whether this leadership change results in improved lead times and more competitive pricing for production-run components.
