Director of Responsible Business Named in Top 50 Workplace Leaders List
NHS Property Services’ Director of Responsible Business, Dr Shamir Ghumra, has been named in the Top 50 Workplace Leaders List in recognition of his influence and impact in the industry.
The Workplace Top 50 Leaders is a celebratory list that highlights influential leaders across a range of industries for their positive impact on their respective industries. The list recognises leaders who show innovative thinking, exceptional leadership skills, and commitment to affirmative change in their daily work.
The inclusion of Dr Ghumra in the list demonstrates his leadership at NHSPS in creating stronger corporate social responsibility and improved environmental sustainability standards, as well as his commitment to leading on and delivering our corporate green plan, energy and environment strategy and social & governance frameworks.
He said: "I'm incredibly humbled to have been picked to join such a great list of leaders. My thanks to NHS Property Services for such an amazing start in what is the organisation's tenth anniversary year, and to my fellow Executive colleagues for being incredibly supportive of myself and the work that I’m here to do."
“As an organisation, we’re committed to leading the way in responsible business and ensuring that we’re implementing more environmentally and socially conscious business practices across our portfolio. We will continue to evolve the NHSPS estate to ensure that we always have a focus on sustainability and that we develop our business practices with an emphasis on responsibility to our customers, patients and the natural world around us.”
Dr Ghumra joined NHSPS in December 2022 and is recognised both nationally and internationally for his work in corporate social responsibility. Since then, he has brought a wealth of experience to the NHSPS Executive Board as an ethical and sustainable construction expert.
Martin Steele, Chief Executive Officer for NHSPS, said: “We’re delighted that Shamir has placed in the Top 50 Workplace Leaders List which shines a light on his work and his unwavering commitment to responsible business practices. We know that through his leadership our business, and more importantly our customers and their communities, will reap both short- and long-term benefits.”
