Babcock is pleased to announce the appointment of Dr Richard Drake as Babcock's Chief Technology Officer (CTO). He will take up his new role on 1 July 2022, succeeding Dr Jon Hall who will be retiring later this year.

Jon joined Babcock in 2008 with the acquisition of Strachan and Henshaw, and has held several senior management positions prior to becoming Chief Innovation and Technology Officer in 2020. We would like to thank Jon for his commitment and contribution during his many years of service and wish him all the best for retirement.
