Engineers enjoy strong year of growth and healthy order pipeline

A Leeds-based civil and structural engineering company has recorded robust growth after securing increased work to support multi-million pound projects across the UK and a healthy forward order book.

RWO has secured more than £500,000 worth of additional revenue for its structural engineering operations, propelling overall turnover to £2.5m this year across its operations.

Currently employing a 30-strong workforce, the firm says its revenue increase has come while it has continued to invest in senior level staff and technical resources.

The business has seen demand for its services away from its traditional northern heartland with projects secured in London, Southeast England and the Midlands.

Customers include Metnor Construction, Karbon Homes, Lindum Developments, Taylor Wimpey, Bellway Homes, Story Homes and Barratt Developments.

Managing director Ross Oakley said: “We have continued to invest in opportunities, develop relationships and expand our operations even during the darkest days of the pandemic.

“We are busier than ever, with the engineering experience and supporting technical skills available to meet the needs of our customers, who are always under pressure to deliver their projects on time.

“Despite some tough ongoing challenges, we remain positive about the future and will continue to build on our success to date; adding further to our team as we continue to grow and improving the services provided to both current and new clients.”
