Construction News Image
Gleeds has appointed Justin Moore as its Project Director for Wales.

Justin has worked in construction for nearly 25 years, initially with Carillion as an operations manager and then Bouygues UK, where he worked in numerous roles, including Wales regional operations director.

In his role at Bouygues UK, Justin oversaw the building of many of Wales' most innovative education buildings. These include the award-winning Penarth Learning Community in the Vale of Glamorgan and Cardiff University’s state of the art Innovation Campus, which will house the world’s first social science research park and start up hub, as well as two world-leading scientific research organisations - the Institute for Compound Semi-Conductors and the Cardiff Catalysis Institute.

Justin, an active member of the CBI in Wales, has joined Gleeds to lead on all education projects in Wales, building on his expertise in the education field to further develop the company's offering in this market.

Justin said: "Having worked with major contractors for most of my career, I am really looking forward to the challenge of working on the project management and consultancy side of construction projects.

"Seeing education projects come to fruition has always been one of the parts of the job I have really enjoyed - being able to see the building come to life, handed over and be used day in day out by students and teachers. So, I am looking forward to the change of working on projects from day one, from scoping out a building to its design, managing costs and its construction, and then onto the completed, working building."
