CSCS has named Graham Wren as its new chief executive with effect from May 1st. Graham previously worked at Balfour Beatty for 29 years, latterly as managing director of Balfour Beatty Ground Engineering.

Graham is currently a board member of ConstructionSkills and chair of its Finance Committee. In the past he has been chairman of the Federation of Piling Specialists (FPS), president of the National Specialists Contractors Council (NSCC) and also sat on the Strategic Forum for Construction.


Commenting on his appointment Graham said: "I was keen to continue my career in a role that involves the wider construction industry. In addition, I am very supportive of an industry that recognises the importance of training and qualifications to improve performance and to attract new recruits. On this basis the chief executive role in CSCS is ideal and I very much look forward to the challenges and eventual rewards."
