Having been with Ardmac for over 5 years, I am proud to be part of a fast-paced, evolving company that prides itself on innovation, “Smart”working and excellence as a standard. I joined Ardmac back in 2017 following 11 years of working in London for an architectural and interior design and build construction company that specialised in the luxury high- end residential sector in the centre of London. Through hard work and diligence within “Janine Stone,” I was rewarded by being promoted to Commercial Director responsible for all the construction team output. At Janine Stone I led a team who built the most inspirational projects that brought our clients dreams and vision to life. Our designers worked with innovative and sophisticated materials, including beautiful marbles, exotic timbers, fine leathers, crafted metals, and artisan mirrors which, when put together with fine detailing, created wonderful living spaces for high, net-worth individuals. Crossing over to the commercial office fit-out sector allowed me to move back up north and join Ardmac. The commercial and strategic skills I had generated in London became key in my new role as MD with the remit to form a strategy and build the UK business. My first few months at Ardmac were all about fact finding and learning about Ardmac as a brand, our strengths and weaknesses and understanding what our customers said about us. This, coupled with some key nuggets from the board, allowed me to devise a strategy which defined our future direction. We made some big decisions but at the centre was to build the Ardmac brand into a leading fit- out specialist in the commercial office and TMT sectors in Manchester, Leeds and Liverpool with a diversification plan around Higher Education and Life Science.
