Recently appointed Chief Executive Officer for OCS UK Bob Taylor has wasted no time in paving the way to future success by appointing a new team of managing directors with specialist knowledge and experience in a number of key sectors.

As part of an extensive transformation programme, OCS UK will be refocused to concentrate on providing services to organisations within education, healthcare, government, business and industry, leisure and retail.

• MD Education & Healthcare – Petra Moss
• MD Business and Industry and Northern Ireland and Scotland – Martin Edwards
• MD Retail, Leisure and Channel Islands – Andrew Mortimer
• MD for Specialist Services (interim) – Julian Gammage

In addition, Taylor has appointed the following people to support him on his Executive Team:

• UK Finance Director - Darryl Mansfield
• Director of Transformation – Julie Jackson
• UK HR Director – Victoria Perkins
• UK HSQE Director – Ian Goodliffe

Speaking about the new line-up, Taylor said: “These are crucial appointments that will influence the future success of the business. I am delighted that we now have such a high quality team, with managers who are both experienced and confident in their fields and keen to see OCS meet its potential in the years to come. I am looking forward to working with the new team as we enter a new era for OCS in the UK.”
