Equans appoints from within to run North West Operating Unit

Leading energy, services and regeneration company Equans has appointed Steven Gregory to run its North West Operating Unit, based in Salford.

Steven joined the business at the beginning of 2019 and led the new build and construction operations in the North West, before becoming the Director of core operations in the region.

His work in the region led to his promotion as Regional Director for the North West business at the end of 2022 as part of Equans’ strategy of investing in and supporting its people.

Equans is a provider of technical services, facilities management, regeneration and energy services, with a strong footprint in the North West across sustainable construction and regeneration. Equans’ portfolio in the region includes the decarbonisation and refurbishment of social housing, large construction schemes for both domestic and commercial use, and decarbonisation work that supports public bodies in reaching their carbon net-zero goals. For example, Equans has recently worked alongside Rochdale Borough Council to decarbonise buildings such as schools, Rochdale Leisure Centre and the council’s headquarters, utilising funding from the Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme.

Steven said: “Equans is an excellent company to be part of, with great values, great prospects, and great people. This opportunity is testament to how the business invests in their people. I’m very excited for the challenge ahead and look forward to working closer with our people, our customers, and the communities we operate in by safely and successfully delivering on our commitments.”

John Haynes, Managing Director of Equans’ Places and Communities North region, said: “I’m delighted that Steven has been promoted to Regional Director, overseeing activity across the North West region. 2023 is an important year for Equans as we work to support our partners with their construction and decarbonisation needs, and the region is in safe hands with Steven at the helm.”
