The North West team is an integral part of Morgan Sindall's decentralised Construction business, delivering high profile, strategic projects that address the needs of local customers across sectors including education, healthcare, office buildings and residential.
Morgan Sindall delivered a range of landmark schemes during Barry’s tenure, including Paddington Village within Liverpool’s Knowledge Quarter, the Science, Engineering & Environmental Building at Salford University and the redevelopment of Lancashire County Cricket Club.
Current North West projects include Wirral Growth Company’s two Grade A office buildings in Birkenhead town centre and Waterside Places’ 11-storey and 16-storey block of flats in Manchester's Islington Wharf.
Simon commented: "The North West is a vibrant market, where we’ve proven that great things can be achieved through collaboration with local authorities, framework partners, developers and other key stakeholders.
"I’m delighted to have been given the opportunity to lead the team, who are passionate about developing intelligent solutions and delivering fantastic projects for our customers, whilst enhancing the communities in which they live and work."
