Ian Gormley, UK CEO of BMS Group, said: “With the addition of these talented individuals, we are strengthening our position in the energy space. They bring with them established market relationships and proven collective expertise, which will enable BMS Energy to grow at the pace that clients require without comprising on the quality of service.

The range of skills that our new additions bring to the team will allow us to keep up with the vast array of technology developments and operational changes that energy companies are currently exposed to.
