£37m turnover cladding specialist launches major recruitment drive

Vivalda Group, the Birmingham-headquartered claddings specialist, has launched a major recruitment drive to provide employment opportunities to cost estimators, designers, warehouse operatives, drivers, sales managers and IT specialists who may have been affected by the Covid 19 pandemic.

The £37m turnover business is looking to fill numerous roles at its sites in Cumbernauld (Scotland), Hull Manchester, Birmingham, London, Swanley and Cheltenham.

Vivalda Group chairman Peter Johnson said: “My heart goes out to sectors of the economy where there is little prospect of a return to work, but at least in construction we have the full blessing of government  to restart in earnest, especially where remediation work on unsafe cladding is concerned.

“Thankfully we have the certainty of the £1.6bn government ‘Building Safety Fund’ to replace dangerous cladding with the non-combustible type we supply. That’s what’s fuelling our new recruitment drive.”
