GROUNDFORCE has announced the appointment of Warren Buckland as the firm’s new managing director.

Warren has been serving as interim MD of the construction services provider since early 2025, following five years overseeing several of the company’s specialist businesses, including Groundforce Bridge, Groundforce Ireland, Groundforce Training and Stopper Specialists. Prior to this, he spent three years as director of Stopper Specialists.

He brings more than 30 years’ experience in the construction industry, gained across both manufacturing and specialist supply organisations.

In his role as MD, Warren will lead the strategic direction and operational performance of Groundforce and its subsidiary businesses.

“My priority is to ensure Groundforce operates safely and responsibly, consistently meeting the highest standards of governance,” Warren stated. “Safety sits at the top of our agenda. For our people, our customers and the partners we work alongside.

“I want Groundforce to be a place where people feel included, supported and motivated. We spend a significant part of our lives at work, and it’s important that the environment is positive, professional and driven by shared values.

“Our customers are central to everything we do. We must listen carefully, keep improving, and remain a supplier of choice through product quality, service excellence and meaningful innovation.”
