Having worked at a senior level within the industry for over 25 years, we're delighted to welcome Alan Elliott to our team to head up our newly established ‘Social Housing & Compliance’ division across our UK-wide network.
With a plethora of qualifications under his belt, including an HNC in contract management, Alan began his career as an apprentice for Southern Electric in 1981, working his way up to become a domestic goods engineer. Moving to Protake as Operations Director in 1996, Alan continued to prove his expertise, serving at a high level for several tier one contractors, before bringing his experience to Checkmate earlier this year.
Expressing his enthusiasm to be a part of the team, Alan said “I firmly believe that Checkmate is the place to be for social housing and fire protection right now. We have so much to offer, and I’m thrilled to be working alongside the industry greats!”
As a seasoned traveller, Alan enjoys motorcycling and spending time in India whenever possible. We are excited to watch Alan develop in this pivotal role - you can get in touch with him on alan.elliott@checkmatefire.com if you have any questions.
