Christopher Kehoe Group Executive Director

Christopher spent his early career in the oil and gas industry, initially delivering construction and environmental projects for a global oil company, before moving to an oil sector service organisation where he led the service and maintenance businesses. There, he also developed the UK’s first nationwide environmental response service working with the UK’s major oil companies.

Having joined EMCOR in 2003, Christopher now leads the ‘Manufacturing & Industrial’ division which provides facilities and support services to customers in the manufacturing, healthcare and technology sectors. He also runs EMCOR’s Key Account Management (KAM) programme in conjunction with Cranfield University – a strategic initiative dedicated to business partnering excellence.

Christopher’s passion is for building collaborative relationships with customers, colleagues and supply chain, and sees this as essential to securing long-term success and sustainable growth. As a member of government-linked body ‘PSL’, which promotes true business partnering, Christopher encourages trust, respect and mutual understanding between EMCOR and its clients. He places great importance on enhancing daily business relations as it can unlock great opportunities, especially in terms of building value and sharing expertise.

In 2010, Christopher secured an industry first for EMCOR in achieving PAS 11000 certification - a new global business standard for building collaborative relationships.

Away from work, Christopher supports his local community and was elected Councillor in 2008. He also enjoys active participation in wide range of outdoor pursuits, with varying degrees of success, and has the x-rays to prove this.
