Cairns Gibson, regional manager for Scotland and North East England, said: “It’s great to now have a sales team in Livingston, supported by our Regional Engineer. We have been servicing the country for nearly 2 years now to great success and we hope that the team continues to do MGF justice in Scotland.”

Brian Chambers

With 17 years of sales experience and eight years solely in ground shoring and temporary works, Brian Chambers was drawn to the shoring industry with a feeling he was suited to the nature of it. In 2014 he joined an extremely small team to start a new independent shoring hire company and grew it from the ground up to in 2018 seeing a buy out take over. This experience enabled him to continue learning, day on day, whilst gaining vital product and market knowledge.



Speaking on joining MGF, he said: “In February 2021, to further advance my career and knowledge I decided to join MGF who had started to show just how professional they are in Scotland. MGF know what teamwork is and the common focus we have to make sure we can offer the full professional solution to our constantly expanding customer base so that our customers’ project is handled.”

“It’s a great challenge to be involved in building and growing the Structural Support business in Scotland and Northern England. The experience, skills and knowledge that was already at MGF has been complimented with recent additions and together we can all move MGF forward and continue to create safe working environments for our customers.”
