The Directors

Mark Swain

Director & Senior Consultant
Chartered Safety & Health Practitioner. Construction and Design Safety Specialist. Regularly involved in the development of harmonised compliance systems for global companies, but many smaller projects too. Loves a challenge.
“I look to provide extra business benefits for our clients. I am committed to a pragmatic approach that focuses on improving business efficiency, communications and resilience, rather than simply gaining legal compliance. Well designed management systems pay for themselves.”

Steve Maclaurin

Director & Senior Consultant
Customer Relationship Management is at my very core.
Delivering any project or task on time and within budget is what a client demands, and we all have a responsibility to achieve this, with good, open communication being the key to success.

Stephanie Barwick

Director

The Team

Health & Safety Professionals; Facilities Management Advisors; Business Resilience and Corporate Security Specialists; Fire and Asbestos Specialists; Trainers.

Over the years, we have built a diverse team of professionals with a variety of skills, personal qualities and experience. What we learn from our work, we share with each other, and we utilise that knowledge to help other clients.

Our consultants are there to help you with their expertise, but we are always learning. Our minds as well as our eyes and ears are open. Most of all we know that all the technical knowledge in the world won’t help if an advisor can’t communicate well, or can’t understand a client’s business and what motivates them. It’s this last element that makes us different and provides us with so much repeat business.
