AFM has promoted fire and security engineer Martin Le Page to the position of fire and security manager.
Mr Le Page, 30, will look after the day-to-day running of the facilities management company’s Fire & Security Division.
‘Coming from working out in the field on the tools into the office gives me a great advantage, as I have an intimate knowledge of the sites and systems we maintain,’ said Mr Le Page, a former Grammar School student who spent 10 years in the army as a surveillance and recce specialist.
‘I am looking forward to learning the commercial side of the business and will relish the challenges the new role brings.’
Mr Le Page has spent three years at AFM as a fire & security engineer. Martyn Pipet, senior manager (hard services) at AFM, said the experience he had gained in that time stood him in good stead for the managerial position and will enable Martin to offer support and advice to both our clients and his team.
‘Martin has soaked up a large amount of knowledge during the three years that he has been with us at AFM. He has acquired vast experience across a range of fire and security systems, which will help him as he transitions into his new management role,’ said Mr Pipet.
Mr Le Page’s will work alongside Paul Le Tissier, who has moved into a more technical role, focusing on design and technical support for the business as well as obtaining and retaining accreditations with regulatory organisations such as the Security Systems and Alarms Inspection Board (SSAIB) and the British Approvals for Fire Equipment (BAFE).
