New Business Development Director - Asia strengthens Invensys Rail Group's operations

Monday, 1 Dec 2008

On 1 December 2008, IRG appointed Charles Page in the newly created role of Business Development Director - Asia.

Charles Page has worked extensively within the Invensys Rail Group for over 28 years. He was part of the team that developed the ground breaking Radio Electronic Token Block system, as well as working on the first BR Style Solid State Interlocking that was commissioned at Leamington Spa in the UK in 1985.Following his success in the UK, Charles transferred to Westinghouse Rail Systems in Australia in 1990 to manage a safety critical development project for WESTECT, an innovative Automatic Train Protection system. In the process he helped establish a new safety critical R&D capability in the Australian operation.

James Drummond, President and CEO, IRG says "The role of the Business Development Director - Asia is important as it is part of IRG's strategy to provide a regionally based focal point for business activity across the Asia region. With our recent success in winning the £123 million signalling contract in Singapore this appointment is of great significance. Charles' previous experience within IRG, including roles in Research and Development, Communications Engineering, Project Management, Quality and Product Safety Management and most recently in Marketing and Sales, ensures he is the best person to represent IRG in this new role."
