FM Conway has appointed former Carillion managing director Adam Green as CEO of the family-owned business.
Green takes over from Michael Conway, who steps into the
role of chairman.
Michael Conway has been at the helm of FM Conway since 1981
when he bought the company from his father, Frank Conway.
The company started life as a road mending business with
just three men and a lorry. Under Michael Conway, it has grown and transformed into
an organisation that now employs over 1,500 people with a turnover of over
£325m.
Green joined FM Conway in November 2019 as managing director
for civil engineering, structures, lighting, water and drainage management, traffic
management and consultancy. He previously served as a managing director at Carillion
for nine years from 2008 until 2017.
Michael Conway, chairman, said: “My father had a dream in
1961, and by 1981 that dream had been realised so I was passed the baton to
take the business to the next stage. Today, it gives me great pleasure to pass
that baton on once again; It will now enjoy a fresh pair of eyes and a new set
of hands to navigate the business into its 60th year and beyond.
“I’ve known Adam for a long time, and when I brought him
into the business it was a chance for us both to understand whether this was a
good fit. I am pleased to say that It didn’t take long to realise it was right,
and so now is the time for Adam to take on the day-to-day operational lead as I
assume the role of chairman. I look forward to seeing our great business
continue to go from strength to strength under Adam’s leadership as we all
adjust to the post COVID-19 era.”
Adam Green, CEO, commented: “I am both delighted and
honoured to take on the prestigious role of CEO of FM Conway. I have long
admired the business and am keen to ensure that the strong family values and
people remain at the heart of what we do.
“Our unique self-delivery model truly stands us apart from
our competitors and I am excited to explore this even further as we look at new
technologies to bring greater levels of service to our customers.”
