Having grown to encompass a large operation under the management of two directors - Stephen Fagan and Graham Fagan - the senior management team have developed plans for further expansion beyond the four operational sites currently held.

As long-standing members of the Burnley Bondholders organisation, the Padiham-based company takes pride in its origins, and continues to make regular contributions to community support projects locally, nationally, and internationally.

In a move designed to align the structure of the company with these aspirations, the board of directors has been extended from two to six people.

Joining the board will be Sam Fagan (business strategy director), Daniel Fagan (transport operations director), Daniel Wood (operations strategy director), and Graham Clare (business development director), all of whom have been valued members of the Fagan and Whalley team for several years, with extensive experience in the business and its operation, and a shared vision for future development. Stephen and Graham Fagan will remain on the board as CEOs.

“We’ve spent a lot of time over the years working on the structure of the company as it exists beneath the senior management team, and we’ve experienced continual growth under the management of our two directors, Stephen and Graham Fagan,” explained Sam Fagan.

“Upon reviewing the operation and discussing our plans for the future, we all came to the understanding that the company had outgrown the current structure, and it was decided that, in order to facilitate further growth, the board of directors would need to be extended.

“The senior management team had already been working as a board for a number of years, so it made sense that the new director positions would be filled by senior staff members who already had a good understanding of the company and its future goals.

“We’re really excited about this latest restructure, and we’re each looking forward to the heightened level of responsibility these new roles will bring. We have already made a start on our plans for expansion, and we’re excited to execute them and move the company forward into a bright future.”
