EDP companies are those that have a head office in the UK but do not employ site-based staff.
The announcement follows ECITB’s appointment of new regional chairs for Wales (Mark Poole, learning and competence manager at Altrad) and the Midlands (Phil Colquhoun, UK managing director at NIRAS Lorien Engineering Solutions) earlier this year.
Regional chairs ensure the needs of employers in that region are represented in decisions around skills and workforce development programmes, as well as enabling the ECITB to forge closer connections to engineering construction businesses in those regions.
Andrew Hockey, ECITB chief executive, said: “I am delighted to welcome these three industry leaders as both members of the ECITB Council and regional chairs.
“Their experience and passion will be a massive asset to drive forward the skills agenda in these regions, building better connections with client and contractor companies across the regions and being part of the solutions to overcome skills gaps.”
