As Chief Executive, Steven leads the Government Property Agency (GPA) in transforming the way the Government’s office and logistics property portfolios are managed.

A Yorkshireman who originally qualified as an engineer, Steven is a collaborator, innovator and leader of change.

Steven also served in the British Army including leading its in-house engineering design and project management consultancy, and as its Director of Infrastructure.

The GPA is growing rapidly with currently seven million square feet of property under its management. The GPA is transforming the future of work in the Civil Service, improving the workplace experience for civil servants across the UK, leading the largest commercial office programme in the United Kingdom, working towards halving carbon emissions from Government offices, and saving billions for the taxpayer.
