New colleagues welcomed boosting skills and capacity
Published on 22 November 2023
IMCA is delighted to welcome two new colleagues to the team to boost skills and capacity in strategic areas for the Secretariat.
John Kingston – Technical Document Assurance Co-ordinator
John will support the delivery of IMCA’s Technical Library and work with the team of Technical Advisers to ensure greater consistency across IMCA’s technical documents.
As a Technical Writer, John has worked continuously in the marine oil and gas sector since 2011, when he joined the team revising BP Shipping’s fleet operating management system, with new documentation being approved by the Plain English Campaign before issue.
He then worked as a Technical Writer on numerous offshore energy projects for operators (BP, TotalEnergies), contractors (Wood Group, Aker Solutions) and suppliers (Birkdale Energy, CMIST).
John is currently studying for a diploma with the National Examination Board in Occupational Safety and Health (NEBOSH).
