Caddick Construction has appointed Paul Dodsworth as its new Managing Director.
Caddick Construction and its subsidiaries form the construction division of Caddick Group and Paul will be head of all construction companies.
Paul, who joins from Wates Group where he was Regional Managing Director North, is tasked with continuing Caddick Construction's vision for strategic geographical and sustainable growth across its divisions.
Paul brings with him more than 40 years' experience across the construction sector and was credited with leading and growing Wates’ Northern Division, which is now recognised as one of the strongest in the Wates Group.

Paul replaces Adrian Dobson who has retired after almost 23 years on the board. Adrian held the Managing Director Position from 2019, he has been a key member of our board helping to guide the strong growth of the company to become one of the leading and largest independent contractors in the north of England. He will be sadly missed but we wish him well in his retirement and thank him for his massive contribution since joining us in 1999."

Paul Dodsworth added: "This is an amazing opportunity and I’m looking forward to being part of the Caddick team that has enjoyed so much success over recent years. I'm particularly excited by the opportunities currently being presented in both the residential and logistic markets. I was immensely proud to be asked to join Caddick Construction. A very well established, respected and financially strong business. The aspirations of the business to expand its geographical footprint, whilst further developing the existing regions, is a challenge I will embrace and drive. I am looking forward to joining on the 1st August 2022."
