30 Second Briefing
Temporary works specialist Mabey Hire has appointed Darren Ginger as regional sales director for the south and Sarah Kingscott as head of national accounts to strengthen its UK infrastructure pipeline. Ginger, formerly head of group sales at Marwood Group with over 25 years in construction and plant hire, will lead the southern sales operation supporting major civil engineering, construction and infrastructure schemes. Kingscott, with more than 20 years in strategic account management across industrial and facilities markets, will focus on national contractors, consultants and major clients on large UK infrastructure investment projects.
Technical Brief
- Focus on national contractors and consultants supports early engagement on temporary works design and value engineering.
- Strengthened national accounts function should streamline standardised temporary works specifications across geographically dispersed projects.
- For large UK infrastructure programmes, coordinated temporary works supply reduces interface risk between groundworks, structures and M&E trades.
Our Take
Mabey Hire already features in our infrastructure coverage for technically demanding temporary works in the UK, such as the 39 m clear-span bridge at Weston-on-Trent and the New York Road Flyover propping in Leeds, so strengthening national and southern sales leadership is likely aimed at converting more of these complex, high-margin projects.
The concentration of over 20–25 years’ experience in strategic account management and senior leadership at Mabey Hire and Marwood Group signals a push to deepen relationships with tier-one contractors and utilities in the UK, where repeat framework work often hinges on trusted, technically literate sales leads.
