NG Bailey names ex-Carillion director as new chief exec

Building services provider NG Bailey has appointed David Hurcomb, a former executive director of contractor Carillion, as its new chief executive officer.

Hurcomb, who will join NG Bailey in September, stepped down last year from the board of Carillion, where he was in charge of UK building, private finance and property services. He was also responsible, at board level, for the group’s sustainability strategy and supply chain programme and was a director of its Middle East joint venture.

Before joining Carillion as managing director of the company’s facilities management division in 2005, Hurcomb was a main board director for Mansell.

Nimble Thompson, NG Bailey’s chairman, said: “I look forward to welcoming David as CEO and as a member of our main board.
“I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Chris Newton for leading the company through the last seven months as acting CEO and look forward to continuing to work with him in that role, until David starts. Chris will then revert to his previous role of chief finance officer.”
