Nominations for Rail Manager of the Year

Mellita Bonifer

Said the following about Gareth Evans:

“Gareth Evans in his role as Senior Procurement Manager has taken in his stride the challenge of procuring for Crossrail, the whole fit out works. Whilst managing a team of 16, he has motivated, trained and enabled us not only excel in our day jobs but also to go the extra mile.

His laissez-faire leadership style, positive attitude, professionalism has helped break down barriers with internal & external stakeholders and he won the Crossrail award for 'Respect' early this year.

From liaising with the client to sort out complex procurement packages, seeking ways to make the process leaner, to doing squats with the team to promote better health & well-being, Gareth does it all.

I am privileged to have worked with him and now have him as my mentor. I wish him all the best always“
