In this episode of the Engineering Talent Podcast, host Fayon Dixon is joined by David Stevens, NHS Estates Director and award-winning engineering leader at our Engineering Talent Awards 2026, to explore his journey from apprentice electrician to senior leadership. David shares what it takes to manage the buildings and infrastructure that underpin patient care, the challenges of balancing limited resources with critical healthcare needs, and why effective leadership requires more than technical expertise. As the first openly gay Vice President of the Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers (CIBSE), he also reflects on the importance of LGBTQ+ visibility, authentic leadership and creating opportunities for the next generation of engineers.
