NHS Property Services (NHSPS) has announced the appointment of Chartered Environmentalist and leading ethical and sustainable construction expert Dr Shamir Ghumra, who will join its Executive Board later this month as Director of Responsible Business.  

Dr Ghumra joins NHSPS from Building Research Establishment (BRE), where he served as Head of Building Performance Services. Well connected to both industry and academia, Shamir was responsible for a range of business areas at BRE including energy modelling, BREEAM – the world’s leading science-based suite of validation and certification systems for sustainable built environment – and the BRE Academy, the leading training provider for individuals and businesses for the built environment. 

I am very excited to be joining NHS Property Services at a time when the organisation is starting to realise its potential as a responsible business. This is a turning point for so many businesses in the construction and facilities management industries and I hope that by bringing my experience to NHSPS we can deliver a sustainable NHS estate that is future-proofed for generations of patients.
