“The strong team of people and competitive positioning of the business means that I am confident we can continue to achieve great things on behalf of our customers.”
“We have a major role to play in delivering the Group’s Sustainable Strategy through our commitment to innovation and collaborative relationships.
I look forward to working with all our stakeholders to make a lasting positive impact on the built environment.”
