MGF is pleased to announce the promotion of Chris Whitworth to the Executive Board, marking a significant milestone in his career and a strategic step forward for the business.

Chris began his journey with MGF in 2010, joining on a six-week work experience placement. Following his graduation from university, he formally joined the company in 2012 as a Management Trainee. Since then, Chris has built an impressive career, gaining hands-on experience across nearly every area of the business.

Over the past 13 years, Chris has worked in the yards, loaded and unloaded wagons, tested and maintained equipment, and held roles in hire desk, depot management, sales, purchasing, transport, and operations. His deep understanding of the business has been shaped by the guidance of experienced mentors and a commitment to continuous development.

A key highlight of Chris’s career has been his instrumental role in developing MGF’s people and leading the development of new divisions within the group. His work has been central to the successful launch and growth of Lifting & Safety, Exports, and most recently, Structural Support, each now a vital part of MGF’s offering to the construction industry.

Chris’s promotion to the Executive Board reflects his dedication, leadership, and strategic vision. His appointment strengthens MGF’s commitment to investing in talent and driving innovation across the business.

Simon Littlewood, Managing Director, commented:
“Chris’s journey is a testament to the opportunities available at MGF for those who are forward-thinking, driven, and committed to making a difference. His promotion is well deserved, and we’re excited to see the impact he’ll continue to make at board level.”

MGF congratulates Chris on this achievement and looks forward to the continued growth and evolution of the business under his leadership.
