Announced as a judge for the third ceremony running, RVA’s managing director, Richard Vann, will join industry peers on a panel for the fifth annual British Demolition Awards later this year.

Taking to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on 1 September 2023, the industry-renowned event – hosted by Global News Media and Demolition Hub – seeks to celebrate the sector’s very best global engineering feats.

Delving deeper into the latest product innovations, top talents, and project successes, Richard will join fellow judges – tasked with hand-selecting the most worthy work undertaken by those who operate in, supply to, and assist in the sector.

Uniting over 500 professionals across demolition, demolition equipment, and the asbestos landscape, this year’s celebration is set to be the largest yet – with more awards categories, networking opportunities, and industry insights than ever before. 

Sharing his pride to be invited back, Richard commented: “With over 30 years of industry experience under my belt, I’ve lived and breathed the breadth and depth of challenges and opportunities that the demolition profession encounters on an ongoing basis. I am used to having an independent stance in the industry — as a consultant — and I look forward to reviewing some of the achievements that have taken place over the past 12 months. From project excellence and safety management, to up-and-coming engineers, environmental breakthroughs and more, I’m sure there will be a lot to celebrate, and recognise. 

“With this hat trick appointment to the panel, I feel privileged to be trusted with such a prestigious role too – acknowledging works of the highest calibre, on a truly global scale. I look forward to marking the occasion on the awards evening in September.”
