Expanding consultancy announces cricket club backing



Civil and structural engineering consultancy AJS Structural Design has announced a new sponsorship deal with Derbyshire County Cricket Club.
Following a recent Marketing Derby Bondholder event held at The County Ground, the Derby firm has decided to give its support to the club.
The sponsorship package includes a boundary board presence at The County Ground, executive access, sponsorship of head coach Mickey Arthur and membership in the prestigious 1870 Business Club.

Steve Sammans, managing director at AJS Structural Design, said: “As a Derby-based business, the opportunity to be associated with a club that boasts such a rich history, high standards and exciting ambitions for the season ahead was one we simply couldn’t pass up.
“The whole team at Derbyshire County Cricket Club has been incredibly welcoming, and it’s a real privilege to sponsor Mickey Arthur.”
The AJS Structural Design team is now eagerly anticipating attending one of the club’s upcoming T20 matches as part of the company’s social calendar.
The partnership comes at a time of expansion for AJS Structural Design, as the firm has recently launched a new arm of the business – AJS Environmental.
The new division provides geo-environmental services to the construction industry and property developers.
Led by chartered environmentalist Matt Cooper, AJS Environmental offers comprehensive expertise in ground investigation and testing, supporting safe, sustainable and regulation-compliant development.
It provides a wide range of services, from initial desktop studies to onsite investigation and testing of materials.
Steve said: “This expansion reflects AJS’s ongoing commitment to providing integrated, high-quality technical solutions across the construction lifecycle -from structural design to environmental compliance.”
