Our Team
Fred Weston now operates successfully as a second-generation company, being effectively guided by our current managing director Peter Weston along with his partner and commercial director, Mike Pearson who have over thirty years experience in electrical contracting and in particular with industrial and commercial contracts.
We directly employ all our staff from qualified electricians to first-year apprentices and office-based staff. Fred Weston is fully committed to training and development and acknowledge that our staff are a key factor to our success.
In testament to this a Fred Weston apprentice was a finalist in the prestigious MK Apprentice of the Year Awards 2007.
Our apprenticeships study NVQ electrical engineering qualifications at local colleges of further education. All employees follow the Joint Industry Board guidelines and as an organisation we are audited annually by NICEIC.

Our Management Team
Peter J. Weston, Managing Director
My career began as an apprentice electrician working alongside my father, where I gained valuable knowledge for operating a successful electrical contracting business. Taking the role of Managing Director in 1989, my aim is to continue to build on our success and hope to pass the family business onto the next generation of Westons
Mark Roberts, Operations Director
Having successfully completed a BSc (Hons) Degree in the University of Manchester in 2003, I decided upon a career change and started as an apprentice electrician with Fred Weston Ltd in 2004. In 2007 I reached final of the prestigious MK apprentice of the year award and later that year completed my apprenticeship. I gained valuable knowledge as an electrician and moved into an office-based role within Fred Weston. Within my current role as operations director I oversee the day to day running of the business operations and head up our small works and reactive maintenance department which carries out works for some of our most important Public Sector clients as well as our private clients. I also work along side our Business Development Director in securing some of our major bids for projects.
Chris Weston, Company Secretary
I joined Fred Weston Ltd in 2005 as the third generation of Westons to work for the company. My current role is to handle the day to day administration of the office, assist with the administration of the larger contracts and also assisting the two directors with their day to day works. I also direct all new enquiries received via phone and e-mail and pass them on to the appropriate person. My aim is to eventually progress to being an electrical estimator.
