SSAIB strengthens certification team with trio of key appointments

Andrew Packham will gradually take on the role of fire schemes manager as part of a planned transition from Keith Strugnell. This phased handover ensures continuity and stability across the SSAIB’s fire schemes.

Packham has more than three decades’ worth of experience in electrical engineering, fire safety, auditing and certification. His previous role with the British Standards Institution saw him manage and develop numerous BAFE Schemes, support certification managers and provide technical expertise across the inspection process. His knowledge and leadership will be instrumental in supporting and advancing the SSAIB’s fire schemes.

Natasha Rogers joins the SSAIB as a fire and security scheme auditor, bringing a wealth of experience in fire and security operations, accreditation management and business support. Rogers has overseen BAFE compliance processes, co-ordinated engineer audits, managed documentation and operational planning and supported both SME and blue chip clients.

Rogers’ strong organisational skills and sector familiarity make her a valuable addition to the fire schemes auditing team.

The SSAIB also welcomes Ryan Graham as a security systems and fire auditor.

Graham is a highly skilled engineer with extensive experience in security and fire systems, including intruder alarms, CCTV, access control, fire alarm installation and commissioning and large-scale project delivery.

His roles with CEFS, Honeywell, CSD and Trinity have seen him lead complex system upgrades, conduct technical audits and manage works across major sites.

Graham’s strong technical background will support the SSAIB’s ongoing work within the security systems sector.
