In his current role as Policy Engineer for Energy Assets Stuart provides assistance and guidance to other parts of the business, where required to provide clarification of the requirements of appropriate legislation, external standards and company procedures. In addition, Stuart has a proven track record in learning and deploying new Engineering and Management skills within the gas industry.
Stuart has been involved with IGEM since 2016 when I joined the Scottish Section Committee before advancing to the position of Vice Chairperson and in 2019 was a candidate in the YPPC competition.

“When I first joined IGEM and the Scottish Section Committee I immediately knew that this is where I needed to be in order to fulfil my professional development in the gas industry. It is an honour and privilege to step into the Chairperson role where I shall endeavour to promote and ensure members gain the most from their membership as well as continue to develop the Scottish Section Committee through high quality events and workshops as I feel this is key for building and maintaining relationships between the professional and academic worlds”.
