“I am delighted to join the board of a group as dynamic as OCU. The business is going through a period of change and rapid growth as it pivots to being not only one of the country’s leading utility services contractors but also a leading contractor for the transformative change in the UK’s energy landscape. I look forward to working with David, OCU’s CEO Michael Hughes and the wider Board to deliver the group’s strategy.”
