Bio
Mark Trelfa
I recruited Paul from Network Rail as a Senior Operations Manager to manage a large team of engineers responsible for delivering the BDUK Wakes Programme. He is a skilled and competent operations manager, who possesses great people and leadership skills as well as excellent project management skills. I was delighted when he was promoted to General Manager, where he continued to excel leading the direct labour team responsible for all of the infrastructure build programmes in Wales.

I worked with Paul for a number of years at Openreach, and his approach was consistent throughout: getting into change early, exploring and testing; taking onboard the case for change, and the narrative of the organisation and industry; providing critical challenge to improve and refine; and using his boundless energy and easy approach to bring his people with him. Paul was my "go to" colleague for ideas and innovation - able to test and learn from new innovations, and ultimately scale and get things done. I would work with him again in a moment.
