Matthew Blair

Executive Chairman

Matt Blair is Executive Chairman of J+S Subsea which was formed in October 2020 through a management buyout of the Subsea Engineering Division of Systems Engineering and Assessment Ltd.

With J+S Subsea and SEA for over 14 years, Matt has a wealth of industry knowledge and expertise.

Previously an Electronics Engineer with Ferranti Computer Systems Ltd specializing in sonar and submarine command systems, Matt moved into hydrographic survey working with Subsea7, Tritech, and CDL before joining J+S Subsea.
