Robin Whitehead, Chief Executive
Prior to joining BGEN, Greg has held various senior health and safety roles during his twenty-plus year career at companies including Balfour Beatty. During this time, he has worked across several sectors, including nuclear, which have extremely high health and safety standards. He also holds a number of formal qualifications and has been a chartered member of the Institute of Occupational Safety and Health for more than 15 years.
In the short-term, Greg’s main priority will be developing a detailed understanding of BGEN. This will include visiting BGEN’s customers onsite, many of which operate in industries such as FMCG, heavy industry, pharmaceutical and utilities. Medium to long-term, Greg will oversee the ongoing digitalisation of the company’s health and safety systems. This will provide the business with real-time analytics and leading indicators to inform future decisions on investment such as training and spend to support the organisation’s continuous journey to zero harm.
I have joined BGEN at an exciting time following its recent rebrand from Boulting, with the company firmly focused on the future. I am looking forward to supporting BGEN’s next generation engineering solutions with forward-thinking and strategic health and safety support. I have full support to help evolve the company’s approach and make a real difference.
Greg Duncan, Health and Safety Director
