Job Description

This Company specialises in fixed-price design and build and two stage tender contracts throughout the United Kingdom. Projects include high-rise residential, commercial and mixed use schemes for new and repeat clients including most national house builders.

This includes a plant fleet of 400 excavators, dump trucks, telehandlers, concrete pumps and associated machinery based out of 9 nationwide depots. They have three factories producing joinery, architectural metal work and prefabricated bathrooms. Their large warehouse and fleet of delivery vehicles makes 'just in time delivery' to the construction sites an everyday reality. Their teams of dedicated managers and professionals, together with their experienced foremen, supervisors and skilled craftsmen, keep it all running smoothly. This in-house capability allows them to minimise sub-contracting and closely control safety, quality, program and costs.
