We were over the moon to receive the accolade for Specialist Contractor of the Year (turnover over £25m) at the prestigious Construction News Specialists Awards following a sparkling ceremony in London last night (September 22).

A Prestigious Event

Industry specialists were recognised across 21 categories at the event, which was attended by more than 800 people and hosted by comedian Mark Watson.

The Construction News Awards are the only national awards recognising the outstanding achievements of specialist contractors. Each of the finalists had to showcase their entries to a judging panel drawn from more than 60 experts from across the sector.

A positive response to the pandemic

The judges were particularly impressed by our positive reaction and support to the pandemic response. They also praised our Living Leader staff development programme, commitment to energy efficient design and supply chain engagement.

Some of our esteemed clients, including AstraZeneca, Cobra Biologics, Recipharm and Terumo Aortic also provided glowing testimonials to help us scoop this award.
