The building warranty and building control<\/a> company has announced the promotion of Ken Bessent to the position of surveying services manager, along with Ant Allen and Steve Harness in the newly created regional manager roles.<\/p>\n

Ken Bessent is a highly experienced building surveyor and is now taking on the role of surveying services manager with responsibility for managing the surveying liaisons and expectations with ICW clients on high value and complex projects across London and the South East.<\/p>\n
