Piers Camp | Gloucestershire County Councillor

About

A Gloucestershire County Councillor and Deputy Leader of Reform UK Gloucestershire, I bring more than two decades of senior financial and commercial experience to public service.

In my professional career I am UK Finance Manager at RWE Renewables UK, one of the country’s leading offshore wind developers and operators, with responsibility for financial governance across major UK infrastructure projects.

I hold a BA (Hons) in Accounting and Finance and am a longstanding ACCA Affiliate. My earlier career spanned banking at Lloyds Banking Group, aerospace at GKN, and global manufacturing. That experience gives me a clear and practical understanding of how budgets are spent, how value is measured, and where waste creeps in.

On the Council I serve as Vice Chair of the Gloucestershire Economic Strategy Scrutiny Committee and sit on the Council’s Pension Board, roles where that financial background informs how public funds are stewarded and how the county’s economic strategy is shaped.

I live in Ruardean Hill in the Forest of Dean.

Council Services & Reporting Problems

Two councils serve the Forest of Dean. Knowing which one handles your issue gets it resolved more quickly. Reporting a problem through the official online tools logs it on the system, sends it to the right team, and lets you track progress, which is often faster than email.
