The engineering specialist delivers mechanical and engineering (M&E) services for both the Loanhead Centre in Loanhead and the Newbattle Community Campus in Dalkeith. The two projects are being delivered by Morrison Construction.
The £34m Newbattle Community Campus project includes a community centre, sports hall and swimming pool, providing much needed facilities and space for the local community. The campus is due to open in spring/summer 2018 and the new secondary school will house around 1,200 students.

Elsewhere, the £15.4m Loanhead Centre is a community facility featuring a leisure centre, library and health centre in the heart of the town, as well as a new state-of-the-art primary school. The school is a replacement and an enlargement of the existing Paradykes Primary School, currently located across the road from the site.
SES' dedicated offsite manufacturing facility Prism will be used on the projects, with 177 prefabricated modules set to be installed on site.
Colin Walker, SES' Business Director Scotland and Major Projects, said: "The successful collaboration between Morrison Construction and SES was vital to secure this second project for Midlothian Council, which is striving to improve and expand community facilities in the area.
"This continued partnership will greatly contribute to the goal of achieving project completion and delivering stand-out new schools and community centres for the people of Loanhead and Dalkeith.
"These projects represent two of a number of public sector and education projects that we are currently working on in Scotland as we expand our operations here and we are proud to be making a difference delivering buildings that will have a real impact on people's lives."
