Major organisational shake-up at JS Wright

BIRMINGHAM building services firm JS Wright is to undergo one of the biggest organisational changes in its 124-year history.
The company, which has its head office in Aston and an office in central London, is promoting six people to a new associate director level to help grow the business and to reward outstanding managerial success.
Six people will become associate directors of the company from May 1: Steve Hancock, Paul Millington, Toby Guise, David Cook, Terence McLaughlin and Robin Thorne.
Marcus Aniol, managing director of JS Wright, said: “The creation of a new tier of directors has been driven by a very healthy order book and our confidence in an even brighter future. It will enable us to strengthen our management structure and ensure that our increasing workload is carried out to the highest quality standards.
“The promotions are also a fitting reward for those who have shown exemplary commitment and excellence in management over the years.”
The directors will be supported by Simon Bevin, who joined JS Wright in 2007 as a Junior CAD technician and will take up the position of CAD manager within the design and estimation department.
JS Wright is benefiting from increasing growth in the construction sector, especially in central London where foreign investment in new apartments is helping to drive the UK’s economic recovery.
Aniol said the firm is anticipating a 40% increase in turnover to more than £25m in its current financial year.
