Arron Ross
Specification Executive (GB)
Arron has been working in the construction industry for nearly ten years; having joined IG Lintels from University after graduating with a BEng (Hons) in Civil/Structural Engineering. For around 5 years, Arron was part of Keystone’s technical department and worked closely with builders merchants, contractors, architects, and engineers to deliver innovative lintel and structural steelwork solutions to fit the client’s remit. Alongside his role as a technical engineer, Arron became involved in the testing process of our lintel ranges which involved anything from testing certain abnormal lintel details to testing new product ranges and testing for the BBA to witness for approvals. During his time at Keystone, Arron showed aptitude and enthusiasm in the field of structural design, and after studying for the ICE scheme for Incorporated status for a few years, started to professionally present and consult to a multitude of different design teams to deliver a range of project scales. Arron is now located in London and undertakes a more client-facing Specification role. His role is incredibly varied with delivery of technical CPDs, site audits, and customer training to Architects, SEs, Contractors, and Builder’s Merchants on a day-to-day basis. Arron says he is consistently presented with new challenges which he is really excited to face in order to thrive in work and expand his professional portfolio.
