Construction firm Willmott Dixon has relocated its Bristol office to Pill on the city’s outskirts having outgrown its Queen Square premises.
The 4,000 sq ft base on the Eden Office Park will house the firm’s 50-plus employees – a major increase on the four staff Willmott Dixon had when it opened its first Bristol office in 2004.
Despite the recession and the knock-on effect on the construction industry, Willmott Dixon has continued to win new business in the South West, which has fueled its continued recruitment programme.
Willmott Dixon South West and Wales managing director Neal Stephens said: “Our move not only reflects the success we’ve had in the past decade but shows our continued determination to grow and adjust to difficult market conditions.
“Our new offices are perfectly situated near junction 19 of the M5 allowing easy access to our projects in the South West.
“With a growing team, we have opted for a much larger office space which will accommodate our expansion in the future.”
Turnover for the South West and Wales region rose from £100m in 2010 to £110m last year. The company has a strong presence in both the public and private sectors.
