Wren said: 鈥淚 was keen to continue my career in a role that involves the wider construction industry.

鈥淚n addition, I am very supportive of an industry that recognises the importance of training and qualifications to improve performance and to attract new recruits.

鈥淥n this basis the chief executive role in CSCS is ideal and I very much look forward to the challenges and eventual rewards.鈥�
