Colemans CEO joins CIOB Sustainability Advisory Panel
Nicky Roger Community editor
Mark Coleman, chief executive of chartered company Colemans, has been appointed to the CIOB Sustainability Advisory Panel, a group shaping how the built environment responds to the climate crisis.
Coleman is a longstanding member of CIOB and achieved Fellow status in 2015.
Speaking of his appointment, Coleman said: “It’s a privilege to be invited onto the CIOB’s Sustainability Advisory Panel. The environmental challenges facing our sector are complex, but they’re also a chance to rethink how we build, deconstruct and reuse more responsibly.

“At Colemans, we’re moving beyond just traditional demolition methods. Our focus on engineered deconstruction supports the circular economy, prioritising the reuse of materials over recycling, and using precision methods and innovation to cut carbon and reduce waste. It’s a more intelligent, environmentally-conscious way of working and one that better serves our clients, our communities and the planet.
“I look forward to contributing insight to the panel and continuing to push for smarter, more sustainable outcomes across the industry.”
The Sustainability Advisory Panel supports CIOB’s sustainability-focused corporate plan theme and acts as a forum for consultation, collaboration and strategic input. Panel members help shape policy and practice, share market insights, monitor political and industry trends, and inform long-term planning across the sector.
Its remit includes supporting circular economy principles, driving carbon reduction in the built environment and informing initiatives to promote sustainable construction.
“I look forward to contributing insight to the panel and continuing to push for smarter, more sustainable outcomes across the industry.”
Mark Coleman
Amanda Williams, head of environmental sustainability at CIOB, said: “We were delighted to welcome Mark to the panel in recognition of his strong commitment to the circular economy and to represent the discipline of demolition and engineered deconstruction, which is a critical player in the drive to improve the sustainability in the built environment.
“CIOB’s membership comprises professionals from a broad spectrum of specialisms and it’s important we give voices to as many as possible to ensure we’re representative and well placed to listen to and present multiple viewpoints, as well as share best practice.
“Having Mark on our advisory panel will help further our work to move sustainability higher up the built environment industry’s agenda and make sure much-needed development can happen with minimal impact on the natural world.”
The appointment also adds to the growing sustainability expertise within Colemans. Earlier this year, assistant project manager, Titus Akpan, was appointed Sustainability Ambassador for the CIOB Birmingham Hub, a role focused on promoting best practice across the region and acting as a conduit between CIOB and industry.
