Stephen, who has worked as a site manager for The JR Group since joining the team in August 2018, received the promotion following his success on delivering high quality projects to an exacting standard - especially given the challenges faced over the past three years due to Covid restrictions.

Previously a joiner by trade, Stephen will begin his new role on the 31st January, thanks to his great work on key construction projects such as Law Place in East Kilbride, Bridge Street in Cambuslang, Laxford Place in Coatbridge and currently the St Marks development in Shettleston.

On the news of his promotion, Stephen said: “I’m delighted to be given the opportunity to continue progressing my career within the expert team at The JR Group. Within this new role as Contracts Manager, I’m excited and dedicated to help continue to deliver high quality, on-time projects and securing some fantastic results for the team.”

John Murdoch, construction director, said: “We are always dedicated to the development and support of our team members so we’re thrilled to announce Stephen’s promotion to the role of our new contracts manager. Stephen’s drive and enthusiasm to deliver the high-quality product we strive for will stand him in good stead as he takes on his new position and I am sure his passion for excellence will continue to flourish.”
