NEW directors have been appointed to support an expanding workforce at a Pilning based construction company.

Helm Construction has promoted Head of Finance Adam Marks and Contracts Manager Jon Ticehurst, who have both been described as “key movers” in the company’s success.

Chief Executive Gary Sheppard said: “Eye for detail is key to any business and both Adam and Jon ensure we are on top of the figures and nailing new projects from signing the contract to handing over the keys.

“Since joining us they have shown exceptional commitment and fully embraced the Helm ethos.

“We never underestimate our people as our growth is fully dependent upon them.”

Helm Construction began as a small village business in Redwick but has since grown to be among the top five per cent of construction firms in the South West.

They regularly tackle medium to large size building projects for both residential and commercial property developers.

Adam Marks, a qualified Chartered Accountant, will bring his experience of the commercial and residential build sector to the company, while Jon Ticehurst will brings his knowledge of construction.

Gary Sheppard added: “These two key promotions not only substantiate our policy of developing talent and promoting from within but also signal our confidence in the market and desire to substantially grow the business."
