Julia's Profile

Since I joined Cedrec in 2006, I’ve been the main contact for customers and can help you with anything relating to new sales, online trials, renewals and general customer service enquiries.

My experience in account management and customer service comes from a wide range of sectors including vehicle retail and insurance underwriting.

In my spare time I enjoy rugby (watching not playing!) and I’ve spent years building up a shoe collection to rival that of Imelda Marcos.

I’ve also jumped off buildings and out of a plane, braved a fire walk and even spent a couple of summers as a holiday rep in Greece so not much fazes me these days!

Steven's Profile

I’ve been with Cedrec from the very beginning in 1994.

Initially, I worked as a legal author and was responsible for the content and updating of Cedrec right through until 2000. I completed the first ever EARA accredited Foundation Course in Environmental Auditing held in Newcastle in 1994, and carried out legal compliance audits when we first started offering them.

These days I look after the customer facing side of the business - focusing on service, sales and renewals. I’m usually a good starting point for any query you have and if I can’t help you myself, I’ll know which of our specialists can.

Neil's Profile

I've been part of the Cedrec team since 2000, taking on a role which allowed me to expand my knowledge of management systems and business related environmental issues acquired at university.

Now I supervise and co-ordinate the authoring department, making sure we provide clear and concise summaries of UK and EU environmental and health & safety legislation at a standard appropriate for all levels of senior management and professionals.

Since 2005 I've been involved with Cedrec’s legal compliance audits. By working directly with organisations, I've helped them understand the law and their responsibilities under it, as well as helping them to implement management systems by compiling their registers of legislation. This has enabled me to develop an excellent practical knowledge of environmental and health & safety legislation across a broad range of sectors.

Gareth's Profile

I’ve been involved with environmental and health & safety legislation for over 15 years. Within my role I’ve helped many organisations ensure they understand their legal responsibilities. With the help of Cedrec, I've assisted them to keep ahead of the game, avoid prosecution and implement their management systems.

As a result of my time in this role, I've developed a wide knowledge of most business sectors and have a good understanding of how to help with legal and general health & safety and environmental problems.

I've been steering the development of Cedrec since 1997. This journey has involved the transition from floppy disk to CD then online. The role is on-going as we are always striving for improvements and adapting to new developments in technology. You wait, one day Cedrec updates could be beamed directly to your brain.
