SSAIB have appointed a new auditor, with Ray Clelland coming on board to help cover Scotland and Northern Ireland.
The 56-year-old – who worked as a technical trainer and NVQ assessor for Chubb Fire and Security prior to his new role - has over 34 years of experience in the security industry, having started out at Securicor as an install and service engineer.
Glasgow-based Ray will work alongside Jim Suttie to ease the CCTV and access control systems scheme manager's workload and the SSAIB’s latest addition can’t wait to get started.
Ray revealed: “I looking very positively at it – as it’s a new step and a new challenge for me. I’ve never held an auditor role before, so – from that perspective, I’m looking forward to it.
“I’d been informed that the company was looking for someone to work with Jim and help him cover Scotland and Northern Ireland. I know Dave [Profit, operations manager] from my time at Securicor, so I made him aware that I’d like to be considered when the time came.
“The plan is for me to work in tandem with Jim to begin with. Once I’m up to speed, I think the plan is for Jim to ease up on the pedal and spend less time travelling around for audits.”
