Last week, our Chief Strategy Officer, Barry Carruthers, joined a roundtable hosted by Aberdeen & Grampian Chamber of Commerce with Stephen Gethins MSP, Minister for Europe, External Affairs and Energy.

Bringing together representatives from a range of sectors across the North-east, the discussion explored some of the key challenges and opportunities facing businesses and the wider regional economy.

Topics included regional growth and investment, energy security and transition, infrastructure, skills and workforce, and the future of the energy sector.

This was the second engagement between Global and the Minister in recent months, reflecting the breadth of Globalโ€™s work across several energy sectors, including renewables, transmission and oil & gas, as well as our role in supporting jobs and investment across Scotland.

The Onshore Wind Conference 2026 takes place at the EICC in Edinburgh on 1-2 September, bringing together the industry to discuss the challenges and opportunities shaping the future of onshore wind.

As part of the programme, our Chief Strategy Officer, Barry Carruthers, will join the panel for Session 7B: Keeping projects moving โ€“ overcoming the practical challenges of onshore wind delivery on 2 September, 1:00-1:45pm.

The session will explore the practical challenges of delivering increasingly complex onshore wind projects, and what the industry can do to improve coordination, reduce delays and support the continued growth of onshore wind across the UK and Scotland.

During the session, Barry will present on how Global brings together specialist expertise and connected capability across onshore wind projects, from environmental and consenting through to civils, electrical infrastructure, turbine installation, lifting, maintenance, logistics and decommissioning, supporting delivery safely, efficiently and at scale.

A common thread runs through our people: hunger. The hunger to learn. To grow. To take an opportunity and see where it can lead.

At Global, we look beyond qualifications. Culture, personality and aspirations matter just as much, if not more. Sometimes, all someone needs is an opportunity.

That opportunity can take many forms. A first role. A new challenge. A chance to step up. Or being pushed to think five years ahead.

People grow. Careers grow. And when our people grow, Global grows too.

As Roy MacGregor, our Chairman, puts it: โ€œItโ€™s people, people, people. Dreams happen here.โ€

Thatโ€™s 'The Global Way'.

Global has launched Global Commissioning, the latest example of building connected capability that genuinely supports our clients and the sectors we support.

The new Aberdeen-based business will deliver commissioning, completions, start-up, handover and operational readiness support across multiple sectors, informed by unrivalled engineering and project delivery expertise.

Commissioning has traditionally been seen as the final part of a project. Global Commissioning will get involved from tendering right through to delivery and handover, bringing right-to-left thinking and a complete vision for the project.

Led by Ben Rushton, who brings 15 yearsโ€™ experience in the field, the team has already secured contracts for two key clients and is actively recruiting, targeting a headcount of 25 by year-end.

As the project reaches another significant milestone, that's how our Chief Strategy Officer, Barry Carruthers, describes Global's new headquarters at Inverness Campus.

With lifting support from our crane fleet, one of the most complete and comprehensive in the UK, the installation of the major plant and equipment on the concealed rooftop plant deck is now complete. This allows the building services to be fully connected, with early testing and commissioning set to commence ahead of full energisation, keeping the project on track for completion later this year.

Externally, the distinctive faรงade is nearing completion, with the complex south-facing elevation now receiving its bespoke cladding panels, creating the distinctive pixelated finish that defines the main entrance, while inside, the building fabric and interior fit-out continue to gather pace.

Commenting on the progress, Barry said: "Global's new head office at is about as big a statement as you can make. It's symbolic of the opportunities we want to create for our people, our group of businesses, and the next generation of talent on our doorstep who live, work and study in the Highlands. It's a flagship and a champion for what is to come."

There's no single route to success.

Some of our people joined with no qualifications. Others changed careers completely. Some simply asked for an opportunity.

Their journeys are all different. Their ambition is what connects them. As Ally says, "Everything happens for a reason. There's no wrong path in life."

As part of DYW's campaign, we're celebrating the different journeys that bring people to Global and showing there isn't one path to a rewarding career.

Christine Cochrane, Chief Relations Officer, comments: "Your career doesn't have to follow a set path. Some of our greatest success stories have come from people who took a chance, embraced new opportunities and never stopped learning. That's what makes Global such a special place to build a career."

Our People. Our Strength. Our Future.

No scripts. No perfect takes. Just our people being themselves.

We've still got plenty more stories to share as The Global Way series continues. But before we do, we thought we'd hit pause and share some of the moments that didn't make the final cut.

Here's a look at the bloopers, outtakes and everything in between.

These are the moments that made the series feel so authentic. Because Global has never just been about the work. It's about the people. The connections we build. The support we give each other. And coming together as one connected group.

That's The Global Way.

Global is expanding its connected capability with a new investment: a majority stake in Prism Energy. This acquisition strengthens our offering and supports our push to deliver the joined-up, end-to-end solutions clients are increasingly looking for.

Founded by Andy Sutherland in 2015, Prism Energy is the creator of Prism Apps, a project management software platform widely adopted across the energy sector. The company also provides project management and controls consultancy services, including planning, estimating and risk management.

Gordon Farmer, Board Director, Global commented: โ€œAndy Sutherland and his team have earned an excellent reputation in the project management sector - particularly across the energy markets - and Prism Energy are at the forefront of a quickly evolving market for digital project management tools and support."

Gordon added: "Working closely together with the Global board and group companies going forward, we look forward to exploring synergies and anticipate Prism expanding its reach and diversifying into the renewables, infrastructure, nuclear, utilities, data centres and defence markets - where Global enjoys both an established - and growing - presence.โ€

Global was founded in 2005 by Roy MacGregor with a team of four by his side. More than twenty years on, we're at the heart of tomorrow's energy, with more than 2,000 people delivering concept-to-completion solutions across the full energy mix.

Christine Cochrane, Chief Relations Officer: "We've grown significantly over the past two decades, but we've never lost sight of what matters most: our people. Backed by decades of experience and trusted to deliver integrated solutions safely across the full project lifecycle, we've retained the close-knit culture and sense of belonging that make Global unique."

"Global to me, it's quite a big company, but with still a small feel." โ€“ Fraser
"It's still a family-run business, everyone knows everyone." โ€“ Daniel

โ€˜The Global Wayโ€™ is what happens when colleagues become the people you lean on, the people you check in with, and the people who make Global feel like more than just a workplace.
