JMS Powered Access has appointed working-at-height specialist Dan Harding as its new National Training Manager, strengthening the company’s IPAF-accredited training offer for customers across the UK.
Dan brings extensive mobile elevating work platform (MEWP) and working-at-height experience to the role, built over a career that has included senior operational and specialist access positions in the powered access industry.
In his new position, Dan will lead the development and delivery of JMS’s IPAF training courses nationally, coordinating programmes both on customer sites and at JMS’s training centres in Harpenden, Dartford and Leeds. He will work closely with the JMS operations and hire teams to ensure customers can access the right training alongside the powered access equipment they hire, helping them work safely and efficiently at height.
JMS Powered Access offers a comprehensive range of IPAF courses designed to equip operators, supervisors and managers with the skills and knowledge to use MEWPs safely, with most courses delivered in one day and successful candidates receiving a digital IPAF PAL card via the ePAL app. Training can be tailored to customer requirements and delivered either at JMS’s IPAF-approved centres or on site, subject to suitability.
Commenting on his appointment, Dan said “I’m looking forward to building on JMS’s strong reputation for customer service and safe working at height by expanding and enhancing the company’s training provision across the UK.”
Mark Jackson, Managing Director of JMS Powered Access, said:
“Dan’s industry knowledge and practical working-at-height experience make him a great fit for this role. His appointment underlines our commitment to helping customers not only hire the right equipment, but also gain the high-quality IPAF training they need to keep their teams safe on every job.”
