The Bellshill-based company is spearheaded by managing director Graham Wright, who is a veteran in the construction industry, and has its sights set on securing construction projects throughout the UK.

Graham Wright said: “This is a really exciting time. My background is in delivering complex commercial and industrial contracts and we’re building a great team here, and also have a network of existing long-term customer relationships. With the support of our parent company, we can offer companies a reliable ‘one-stop-shop’ for a variety of contract works, from earthworks, structured steel buildings to wind and waterproof buildings.”

Core services will include the logistical planning, management and implementation for temporary and permanent works design; deep basement reinforced concrete construction; top down construction; core construction, hybrid building structures, wind and solar energy and wastewater treatment plants.

Seamus Shields, managing director of Advance Construction Scotland, added: “We’re delighted to have Graham on board and the launch of WRS Structures Ltd further cements our ambitious growth strategy and represents a natural progression for the business.

“Graham has worked on many high profile challenging contracts and his knowledge, skills and extensive networks will be a great asset for the division.”

An avid skydiving enthusiast, Graham recently took to the skies to launch the new business.

He added: “I’m a fully qualified skydiver and love nothing more than spending my weekends jumping out of planes so it seemed only right to grab a friend and fly the flag for the new company, literally over Errol in Perthshire.”
