Brad Rabone, JDR’s Head of Sales, Renewables – Europe, has been selected to join the East of England Energy Group (EEEGR) Offshore Wind Supply Chain special interest group (SIG) steering group.

The aim of the recently launched group is to share information and best practice, and to promote offshore wind business opportunities in the Southern North Sea and European waters.

The group’s objectives include informing and supporting EEEGR board members regarding its interaction with policy makers, sharing market intelligence, lessons learned and recommending supply chain improvements.

Brad joined JDR in 2013 and has over fifteen years’ experience in the high tech cable industry. He has previously held UK sales and key account manager roles for Nexans covering markets including onshore wind, rail and high voltage infrastructure projects.

“EEEGR’s role is essential to achieve sustained development of the energy industry in the East of England. JDR has established itself as a world leader in the supply of cables to the offshore wind industry and has an important part to play in developing and maintaining links within the supply chain. I am proud to represent JDR as we work more closely with EEEGR to promote the wealth of expertise and capabilities in the East of England area,” Rabone said.
