Trans Global Projects (TGP) has appointed Ben Taylor as the general manager of its UK business as it looks to benefit from growth in the energy sector.

Taylor will take responsibility for the day-to-day running of the UK business and its future development. He has more than 20 years experience in project cargo.

“Managing the UK’s operations, Taylor will be focused on consolidating TGP’s leading position in the project logistics industry, as well as capitalising on new opportunities through the energy transition,” the company said.

The new appointment comes as the company has been growing its team.

“Ben joins at an exciting time for TGP UK, following a period of sustained growth and as we look to continue to expand our role in the country’s energy transition,” said Colin Charnock, the firm’s chief executive.

“We look forward to working with Ben and benefitting from his significant experience.”

TGP recently grew its workforce across Europe, with three new appointments to its team in Bremen, Germany, a new head of operations for the Benelux region, and a new global head of communications and marketing.

Taylor added: “Following the UK’s general election, the new government has reversed the ban on onshore wind, launched Great British Energy, and green-lit 131 new clean energy projects through the latest Contracts for Difference auction.

“TGP is well-placed to help deliver such projects and cement its place as a key player in the UK’s energy transition.”
