Changes at the top for engineer GKN

Wire, the creative communications agency based in Edinburgh and Glasgow, has been tasked with drawing up an “experiential tour” to take the William Hill Scottish Cup around the country. Its deal with the SFA will see the trophy go on the road to six locations, with supporters being given the chance to see the silverware up close by taking part in a series of challenges. SFA marketing manager Mike Paterson said: “It’s about more than a football competition; it’s all about the clubs and communities that take part.” Global engineering firm GKN is losing two of its top executives, following the retirement of boss Nigel Stein and the departure of the company’s finance director Adam Walker.

Stein is set to step down as chief executive on 31 December after five years at the helm, and will give up his directorship the following March.
