Happy New Year and welcome to the first update of 2023!
As many of you will already know, I have taken up the post of Interim CEO and very much look forward to driving a fresh direction alongside the excellent and well-established board of directors.
I have been involved with Constructing Excellence since 2010 at both club (as Chair) and regional level (Board member and Leadership Council Chair), I have built up a good understanding of the inner workings of the organisation and will be further drawing on my involvement from right across the construction, infrastructure, engineering, development, and technology sectors. This knowledge will certainly help us as we tackle the agreed direction of “Brave Movements” by needing to reset, re-evaluate and restructure our future direction by ensuring that our membership offering sits at the heart of everything we do and is of the best value available for a not-for-profit representing body within the Construction Sector.
As we quickly enter 2023, I can’t remember a time where the construction sector has been more ready to being reconfigured, the opportunity to deliver construction in a better way is upon us. The need for disruption and innovation, together with creativity and the desire to be straightforward and collaborative is now, and CESW will be at the forefront of this “Brave Movement”.
I look forward to keeping you updated on CESW’s progress and thank you for your continuing support.
Kevin Harris
Interim CEO
