Morgan Sindall Construction has appointed Nick Corrigan as area director of its North East and Cumbria business.
Corrigan, who has 30 years of construction industry experience, joins the business from Willmott Dixon where he worked for nearly 13 years and ran the North East region.
Corrigan said: “This is a part of the world I know well and care deeply about. There’s huge potential for growth in both the North East and in Cumbria, not least because of the renewed focus from the top levels of government on rebalancing the UK economy and supporting the UK regions.
“The business has a genuine local presence and local knowledge. That means we can make decisions that are right for our local business and our customers. I’ve also seen first-hand the strength of Morgan Sindall’s commitment to social impact and the quality of the systems it has in place to make sure local people benefit, local supply chains are involved, and the local pound is valued.”
Simon Arnott, managing director for Morgan Sindall Construction in the North, added: “There is a great deal of focus on investment in the North East and Cumbria and Nick is exactly the kind of leader we want at the helm of our regional business. He leads from the front, builds trust quickly with clients and teams alike, and is committed to delivering great work that leaves a lasting, positive legacy in the communities where we live and work. His breadth of experience and genuine passion for the industry make him the ideal person to take this business forward as it continues to grow.”
