Managing Director
Brian McMillan
I started my resilience career at 16 years in the Royal Air Force and have moved on to Police Control Room roles, HM Prison Service and Local Authority regulatory compliance.
Having that responder background, I landed a role within Staffordshire’s Civil Contingency Unit (CCU) specialising in supporting Health Partners, before moving into the NHS in a dedicated EPRR Lead role. I have been working for Responder agencies for 37 years now with over 10 years in Civil Contingencies and EPRR roles.
I have delivered EPRR across the range of providers – Mental Health, Community, Acute and ICB levels and have been able to provide high quality returns using innovative training and exercising tools.
I am DIPhep and CBCI qualified and have particular knowledge, understanding and experience in Lockdown, Evacuation and Shelter, Health Vulnerabilities, RAAC and JESIP.
I was part of the 2026 team that revised the JESIP Commanders training package. I am part of the National Local Resilience Forum Training and Exercising Group, the National Performance Advisory Group (NPAG) and part of the NHS Lockdown group. I introduced the US Alert Media® system to the NHS to support incident notification, communication and geo-tagged warning and informing and personal safety solutions and have experience of implementing it as a whole organisational tool.
In addition to my EPRR roles, I have trained and qualified as a
•High Consequence Infectious Disease (HCID) PPE trainer
•Respiratory Protective Equipment (RPE) fitter, and a
•PRPS Trainer
37 years in responder agencies, and over a decade leading EPRR, Brian offers a depth of knowledge that is genuinely unparalleled.
