New Chairman for Soil Stabilisation Task Group

The newly appointed chairman of the busy Soil Stabilisation Task Group is Alastair McDermid, a familiar face to many at Britpave.

Al is Managing Director of Beach Soil Stabilisation Ltd, a company that he set up with his father, following a management buyout from the Ringway Group in September 2006.

He has been closely connected with Soil Stabilisation for 15 years, having been involved in setting up two companies and has worked for one of the largest soil stabilisation contractors in Australia.

Outside of work, Al is a keen rugby fan and still plays every Saturday for his home town club, Haywards Heath. Off the pitch he enjoys swinging a golf club (sometimes hitting a ball!) and spending time with his friends – although all of this is soon to come to an end as he and his fiancé are expecting their first child in February!
