Sam Davies appointed Business Director at FENSA

Sam joined FENSA over four years ago and has most recently served as Technical Manager, overseeing all technical services across the scheme.

In that role, he has worked alongside government departments on the standards behind Mandatory Technical Competence, supported the updating of Building Regulations guidance and the Conditions of Authorisation, and led the team that provides technical support to FENSA installers.

Sam’s career in the industry began at 16, when he followed a colleague into the trade. He has since worked as a fitter’s mate, fitter, surveyor, and service engineer, delivered NVQ training to new entrants, managed contracts and sites, and spent three and a half years as an inspector for RISA.

In his new role, Sam will continue to drive FENSA’s mission to raise industry standards, guide FENSA installers through challenging times, and deliver a simpler, faster, and better-connected service.

“Sam has been central to how FENSA supports installers, and his experience across fitting, surveying, training and inspection gives him a rare understanding of the people we work for,” said Dave Mechem, Managing Director of FENSA. “Sam is the right person to get us where we want to be, and I am delighted to congratulate him on this well-deserved promotion.”

For Sam, the promotion is a chance to build on everything the team has achieved so far.

“Having started out on the tools, I understand the challenges installers face and the importance of practical support when economic pressures make trading conditions tougher,” said Sam Davies, Business Director at FENSA. “I am proud of what our team has achieved and excited to build on that progress. As we prepare to mark FENSA’s 25th anniversary, my ambition is to develop FENSA, build on its reputation as a trusted name in certification and enhance the services we provide. That means helping installers get the job right and giving homeowners the guidance and confidence they need when improving their homes.”
