Commercial Manager
Throughout 2024 we will be introducing members of our companies across all divisions and areas of the business!
We would like to introduce the Greentown Traffic Management Commercial Manager, Steven Foreman!
Steven how long have you been with Greentown?
Coming up on 7 Years.
How has your career progressed with Greentown?
Over the years I have worked at Greentown I have progressed through the ranks, starting off as an untrained worker out on the ground I soon got my 12D to lead jobs on rural roads, then progressing on to 12AB and Foreman. Then an opportunity came along to try out working in the office and with it being winter I jumped at the chance to be inside every day. From then Greentown has grown and we have all been given our own parts of the business to look after in the office hence why I am now Commercial Manager.
What are your expert areas or skills, and why do you think those skills are important in the workplace?
Id like to say I’m good with numbers because they’ve trusted me with the commercial side of the business, definitely problem solving with all of the problems that come with organising TM, whether that be getting work booked in through relevant bodies or dealing with staff absence.
What do you like most about your job/what do you find most rewarding?
The people I work with, makes it x10 easier when you get on with the people you spend 9 hours a day with. The most rewarding part would be seeing the company grow with something you had a part in doing.
What is your favourite work memory or funny event?
Lighting up a portable BBQ on a summers day and having a BBQ for lunch, less stress throughout the day back then.
What are your hobbies and interests?
I play rugby for most of the year and when I’m not doing that I golf over the summer months when the weather is good.
