Jane Bugler
Technical Director
Jane Bugler is a chartered chemical engineer who worked in the chemical industry for several years before joining the UK Health & Safety Executive (HSE), where she worked in a variety of roles (including work regarding pipeline regulation) before joining IMCA in 1997, when she became Technical Director at the new full-time combined secretariat.
Jane has particular responsibility for the extensive and varied technical agenda of the various IMCA committees and for liaison between IMCA and external organisations, including other trade associations such as OGP, Oil & Gas UK and OLF, regulators such as ADAS, HSE, etc. and various diving-related organisations. Jane is IMCA's authority on safety and diving issues, providing invaluable continuity between the many technical agendas, separate pieces of documentation and the wide variety of clients, governments, authorities and other bodies mentioned above. This work means co-ordination of the various technical committees and workgroups, drafting of guidance and briefing, review of third-party drafts, oversight of technical audits (both of applicant members and establishments seeking recognition of certain training courses), and wide communication - a complex and heavy workload!
Jane acts as deputy chief executive in Hugh's absence, requiring detailed knowledge of IMCA's activities, and sits as a full member of the Association's Overall Management Committee, which has final responsibility for IMCA's work and management.
