NG Bailey Appoints Low Carbon Director to Drive Sustainability Initiatives

NG Bailey, the largest independent engineering and services firm in the UK, has announced the appointment of Jonathan Kershaw as its new Low Carbon Director. This newly established role is designed to enhance the company’s efforts in providing sustainable solutions that facilitate clients’ transitions to more efficient, resilient, and environmentally friendly buildings.

Jonathan will be responsible for developing and executing a strategic plan aimed at expanding NG Bailey’s low carbon services. His focus will be on delivering measurable outcomes by leveraging data insights, engineering expertise, and practical implementation to maximise the long-term benefits of reduced carbon assets. He will oversee projects that guide clients from initial feasibility and investment planning through to technical design, installation, maintenance, and optimisation of long-term performance.

With over 15 years of experience in supporting businesses to lower carbon emissions and enhance resilience through significant infrastructure and engineering projects, Jonathan previously served as the managing director of Dalkia Energy Services, formerly known as Breathe Energy. In that capacity, he assisted both public and private sector clients in executing energy reduction and decarbonisation initiatives.

Upon his appointment, Jonathan remarked, “It’s an exciting time to be joining NG Bailey as the business continues to invest in and grow its Low Carbon offer. There is a clear focus on delivering practical, measurable outcomes for clients and supporting them as they transition to more efficient, resilient and sustainable buildings.” He added, “NG Bailey’s depth of engineering expertise, combined with its end‑to‑end approach to delivery and long‑term asset performance, creates a compelling platform to help clients unlock real value from lower‑carbon buildings. I’m delighted to be part of the next phase of the business’s growth.”

Alex Chilvers, Strategy Director at NG Bailey, expressed his enthusiasm for Jonathan’s arrival, stating, “I’m pleased to welcome Jonathan to NG Bailey. With decarbonisation remaining a key target for many of our clients as they look to manage energy transition or mitigate the current market volatility within the energy sector, Jonathan’s expertise will be invaluable to the business. I look forward to working with him to further develop our Low Carbon business, which complements our existing work in sustainability and energy management across the group both for ourselves and for our clients.”
