Certsure, the organisation behind NICEIC, the UK’s leading certification body for the building services industry, today announced the appointment of Clair Mowbray as Chief Executive Officer, effective 30 March 2026.
A proven CEO, Clair joins Certsure having led nationally significant, safety-critical organisations including The Fire Service College and the National College for High Speed Rail. She brings extensive experience in delivering technical excellence, operating within complex sectors, and working closely with industry and government to strengthen the development of skills and talent pipelines.
As CEO, Clair will be responsible for Certsure’s future strategic direction and will lead the organisation’s vital work to safeguard public safety, raise standards, and uphold the highest levels of technical competence. She will focus on strengthening Certsure’s industry-leading position to deliver even greater value for its customers, and will work collaboratively with stakeholders and government to ensure NICEIC-certified businesses – and the wider sector – are well positioned to meet the needs of today and the evolving demands of tomorrow.
Clair Mowbray, incoming Certsure CEO, commented:
“It is an honour to join Certsure, a highly respected organisation, at such an important moment for the sector. As the industry undergoes rapid change, NICEIC-certified businesses will play a critical role in the nation’s transition to electrification and low-carbon technologies.
“Working closely with our customers and with partners across industry and government, we will continue to raise standards and set the benchmark for competence, safety, and trust. This moment presents a significant opportunity for Certsure and for NICEIC-certified businesses across the UK, and I am excited to get started.”
