Welcome to ECA's South East Region
ECA’s South East region has an active Membership of over 260 companies across Kent, Surrey and Sussex. Our Members range in size from sole traders to larger companies and work in both domestic and commercial settings. Members are supported by Kevin Bush – Regional Manager, Andrea Wilson – Business Development Manager and Rachael Dillon - Regional Coordinator.
The diverse nature of the region and its proximity to London means it’s well placed to provide a wealth of opportunities for members, from manufacturing to distribution and installation to maintenance.
We provide support for all our Member companies and have an active branch and regional network to enable Members to network, build relationships and get the best out of their membership.
From one-to-one meetings, business networking, training, social events and wider industry forums not to mention ebulletins and newsletters, the South East region helps members to grow and prosper. Recently we’ve teamed up with the likes of Scolmore and Mersen to offer CPD accredited sessions. Our branches are active too. For instance, the Maidstone and East Kent Branch’s Dinner Dance last November raised £12,000 for charity, split between MIND and the EIC.
Close links with specifiers, client bodies and wider industry partners in the area means Members are aware of local and regional initiatives that may impact on their business. It also means we can champion the crucial role of the electrotechnical industry to the South East’s economy.
Members who work in specialist areas such as hazardous areas, high voltage and ICCT can join our Working Groups to discuss best practice and common issues and also have the opportunity to network. There are also opportunities to help represent and influence the industry in these areas.
In June, we held our South East Regional Conference at Lingfield Park, Surrey with a focus on net zero and new technologies plus commercial and legal issues. Download the presentation slides here.
Whilst our Annual Golf Day will take place on 5 July providing a great opportunity for members to relax and meet socially. We will also be holding networking events for our Members plus virtual training sessions so you can stay-up-to date from your office or site. Do visit the Regional Member Events page to check what events you can join.
