Danny Gardner – Operations Director, Technical Services.

We are pleased to welcome Danny Gardner to Q3 as Operations Director for our technical services business. Danny brings huge experience to this role, having worked for over two decades across building services and TFM/IFM service delivery in both the private and public sectors, specialising in hard services engineering, and HVAC within business-critical environments, and the FM sector generally.

Since starting his career, as an apprentice, trained electrical engineer working on the Jubilee Line extension project for London Underground, Danny has subsequently expanded his skills and expertise with many of the leading M&E organisations, working with both large corporates and SMEs across the UK and into Europe.

Danny describes himself as highly inquisitive. Once he gets a taste for something, he pursues it relentlessly until he feels he fully understands the mechanics and is confident he has mastered it. That approach applies to work or sport and his interests have expanded to include everything from Rubik’s cube, to golf, snooker and downhill mountain biking.

Based just outside London in Essex, Danny will be working to expand and develop Q3’s engineering and maintenance capabilities in existing technical services contracts and across our IFM portfolio. The objective is to enhance Q3’s technical services operational foundations to ensure they can support our future growth ambitions, including robust processes to underpin each stage of service delivery and compliance. Danny will also spearhead the expansion of our energy management and sustainability services offering and act as engineering lead on new contract mobilisations.

Speaking about his new challenge, Danny said, “If I had written the job description myself, I don’t think I could have created a role more matched to my skillsets and experience. I am really looking forward to meeting my colleagues and clients and getting the ball rolling.”
