Clark Contracts Managing Director, Gordon Cunningham, is celebrating 25 years with the company.

Cunningham joined the business in 1999 as General Manager of the Small Works Division. He was appointed Managing Director in 2004 and has overseen significant growth, with the company's turnover now exceeding £110 million.

Under Cunningham's leadership, Clark Contracts has expanded its geographic reach and is now delivering projects across the UK. The company has also invested heavily in its workforce, with over 250 employees and a thriving apprenticeship program.

The company's Academy, established in 2006, has supported over 350 trainees and apprentices.


Gordon said: "Over my 25 years at Clark Contracts I have enjoyed watching both the business and employees grow and develop to where we are now. I can remember when we delivered our first £1m project, and now we are delivering projects upwards of £30m across all sectors and earlier this year featured as number 3 in Glenigan's Top 10 Scottish Contractors industry report. Despite this growth, we remain dedicated to the delivery of smaller projects, from £10k, with our divisional structure allowing us to allocate project teams with the relevant expertise and capabilities.

"We have a strong belief our Customers' 1st initiative which seeks to continually improve the way all of our employees deal with our customers. This is shown in the longevity of our customer relationships, some of which we were working with when I joined back in 1999 such as the University of Glasgow, University of Strathclyde, Glasgow Caledonian University, and the NHS.

"We have great examples across the business of employees who joined our Academy as apprentices, trainees, college and university students and have progressed into senior management roles. More recently we have developed a leadership and development programme for future leaders of the business, to ensure the continued growth and stability of the business."
