Building services consultancy CPW has announced the promotion of three team members to director, marking the company's significant growth into a wider variety of disciplines.

The talented trio includes Hazel Andrews, part of the sustainability team, Jim Buckley, from the public health team, and Jon Willmott, who heads up the acoustics team. The move solidifies CPW’s expansion into a range of services, enhancing its core mechanical and electrical engineering offering.

Since joining CPW in 2012, Hazel has helped to establish the firm’s dedicated sustainability team, which supports clients in creating the most sustainable design possible, guiding them through accreditations and reporting systems to create successful energy strategies that aim for a fabric-first approach.

Hazel said: "I've been at CPW for 11 years and seeing the sustainability team go from strength to strength has made me proud of the business and the industry. I joined when the department had just formed and it has been a pleasure to grow our team from four to 12 people as well as greatly expand our expertise and offering.


"I'm also proud of the wider company’s growth as well – sustainability has always been integral but our ‘sustainability at our core’ re-brand really recognised the role that everyone plays and not just one team. I’m therefore thrilled to be promoted to director and I look forward to developing not only the sustainability team but the net zero carbon agenda for all our clients."

Jim joined the firm more than seven years ago, growing the public health team and its services. He said: "We have some really exciting plans in the pipeline for the team – including our own research and development commitment to really focus on innovative and sustainable engineering within the sector. I’m therefore so pleased to become a director – it is further proof that CPW truly invests in its people and what they have to offer."

Andy Hill, director at CPW, said: "We are so pleased for Hazel, Jim, and Jon as their promotions to director not only celebrate their fantastic contributions to the business and a milestone in their careers – but it also marks a really exciting moment of growth for CPW.

"We now have nine specialist teams – including sustainability, public health, acoustics, innovations, vertical transport, and more – highlighting our strengths as a multi-disciplinary sustainable engineering consultancy. Hazel, Jim, and Jon have been a key part of this success – so I wish them the best of luck in these new roles and look forward to seeing what they do next."
