Gordon Balmer 

EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

Gordon is joining RefuelForum UK 2023 to present PRA updates and provide Q&A oppotunitiy for the audience. 

Gordon has extensive experience in the fuel industry having worked for BP for 30 years. During this time he worked in fuel sales, strategic planning, project management, UK Fuel Card Manager and UK Country Manager where he was responsible for fuel cards, commercial fuel, automotive lubricants and fleet performance management.

On leaving BP he formed his own businesses and worked as a consultant on payments specialising in fuel cards.  Gordon has worked for the PRA since 2013 primarily as Commercial Manager where he was responsible for all marketing and commercial activities and represented the PRA in meetings with a number of Government Departments.

Away from work he enjoys being with family and friends, keeping fit, cycling, watching sport and gardening.

Mike, John and Jon make up the C-Store Collective. They are the three founder consultants and are supported by a panel of associate consultants and additional industry experts and businesses that have been involved in every aspect of convenience store operation. 

 

"ReFuelForum allowed me to see so many customers and suppliers in one superb location. The topics debated were hugely relevant, representing the day-to-day issues fuel retailers face. I just can’t believe how productive my time was and how much I managed to achieve. A great two days."

Retail Director, Certas Energy. UK

"A cracking opportunity to network with new faces within the petrol forecourt market. I was struck by the sheer volume of good contacts at a broad range of independent operators that would be hard to contact on an individual basis."

Head of Franchise Development, KFC. UK
