ABOUT GAVIN KINGTON
I’m a people‑centred General Manager with over 26 years’ experience delivering major Overhead Line (OHL) and energy infrastructure programmes across the UK and overseas. Throughout my career, I’ve built a reputation for staying calm under pressure, bringing people together, and delivering complex projects safely, efficiently, and with clarity.I currently lead Omexom’s Transmission England business, scaling the operation from £12m to an expected £50m turnover by 2026. That growth has been driven by building strong teams, strengthening client trust, improving operational discipline, and setting a clear vision that people can get behind.I believe leadership is about consistency, authenticity, and genuinely caring about people. I invest heavily in developing my teams and myself.I’m passionate about the energy sector, the people within it, and the critical role we play in connecting and powering the UK. Whether I’m working on strategic growth, commercial decision‑making, delivery performance or safety culture, my approach is always the same: be clear, be honest, and do the right thing.Outside of work, I’m a dedicated family man, an advanced motorcyclist, and someone who’s happiest when I’m travelling, exploring, or challenging myself.If you’d like to talk leadership, energy infrastructure, project delivery, or industry collaboration — I’m always happy to connect.
