Braemar Shipping Services is carrying out a review of how it will resource the business as it seeks to maximise its shipbroking expertise.

The UK shop's strategic planning comes after a transformative year that saw three lines under its troubled Technical Services Division sold to Aqualis, new chairman Ronald Series appointed and long-serving CEO James Kidwell retire.

Series, who has been acting CEO as well since Kidwell's departure, told TradeWinds he will continue in both roles until the review is completed by the end of February.
