As the energy industry continues to navigate complex headwinds and transformation pressures, Integrity ISS Limited marks a significant milestone in its growth journey by reflecting on the seven-month tenure of John Welsh as business development director.

Since joining the leadership team, Welsh has helped steer Integrity through a turbulent market with focus, vision, and a results-driven strategy aligned with the company’s long-term ambitions.

With over 45 years of industry experience, including senior leadership positions at Altrad and Cape PLC, where he oversaw a diverse portfolio of industrial services across the global oil and gas sector, Welsh brings a unique blend of strategic insight and frontline understanding of complex operational environments.

Driving Strategy in a Sector Under Pressure

The energy sector is facing converging challenges: decarbonisation mandates, ageing infrastructure, increased demand volatility, and supply chain disruptions. For businesses operating in this space, resilience is no longer optional—it is essential.

“Energy companies need strategic partners who are not only reactive to the now, but proactive about what’s next,” Welsh noted. “At Integrity, we’ve positioned ourselves to deliver just that—through dependable service, innovation, and forward momentum.”

Since joining the company in December 2024, Welsh has led a refresh of Integrity’s business development strategy, expanding its presence in oil and gas, renewables and emerging infrastructure projects, while strengthening ties with existing clients in high-hazard industries.

Under John’s commercial stewardship, Integrity has embraced a forward-thinking, partnership-first model that prioritises sustainable growth and operational excellence. His influence has helped the business reaffirm its commitment to safety, integrity, and long-term value creation across all client engagements.

“John’s ability to engage with our clients at a strategic level while keeping our values at the core of every deal has been transformative,” said Stuart Charles Sinclair, CEO of Integrity ISS Limited. “He understands how to convert industry headwinds into opportunities—and that’s exactly what the current landscape demands.”

Shaping the Future of Integrated Service Solutions

Looking ahead, Integrity remains focused on building a more adaptable, diverse, and technology-enabled service model - well-positioned to support clients through the accelerating pace of energy transition and infrastructure modernisation.

“Industrial services must evolve in lockstep with the sectors they serve,” Welsh added. “We are developing integrated solutions that support both legacy infrastructure and next-generation energy systems, from offshore platforms to clean hydrogen hubs. This dual capability sets Integrity apart.”

With a foundation of trust, agility, and technical excellence, Integrity is poised for continued growth - underpinned by the vision and leadership of executives like John Welsh, whose industry experience and drive reflect the very ethos of the company.
