Offsite specialist contractor M-AR has set out its new mission statement to boldly grow through innovation & collaboration following recognition in the prestigious Yorkshire Fastest 50 Awards
M-AR has refreshed its company values and guiding principles to ensure it can grow sustainably and without losing sight of what makes M-AR, M-AR, as it continues to undergo a period of unprecedented growth.
Following a consultation process with all its staff, M-AR has set out five shared values of courage, authenticity, collaboration, teamwork and communication, along with three guiding principles underpinning how the company operates. Its long-held aim to be a people-centric business remains a key part of M-AR’s corporate makeup.
Together these values and principles form M-AR’s mission statement: “Being brave enough to drive change through fresh thinking and collaboration in everything we do. Delivering exceptional projects, breaking down the barriers and inspiring a new generation of construction professionals.”
M-AR recently celebrated its 15th anniversary
This mission will steer M-AR as it continues to build for the future – creating spaces which will benefit every community and that future generations will want to call home. M-AR sees itself as forward-looking and aims to catalyse innovation and change in the wider industry.
Ryan Geldard, director at M-AR said: “Our team are the foundations on which our business is built, so it was crucial for us to involve all our staff in the process of setting out our values and mission for 2023 and beyond.
“Our behaviours, beliefs and goals, both as individuals and as a collective, will help us create a robust, innovative company which will deliver exceptional projects we can all be proud of.
“Our mission is clear and concise, and every member of the team knows the part they play in helping us achieve this mission for the future and ultimately where we’d like to be as a business in the next five years, and I know I speak for everyone when I say I’m excited to see what that future looks like for M-AR.”
M-AR’s recent growth has been recognised in the prestigious Yorkshire Fastest 50 Awards
M-AR has also recently been named one of the 50 fastest-growing companies in Yorkshire in the prestigious Yorkshire Fastest 50 Awards.
The prestigious Ward Hadaway Yorkshire Fastest 50 Awards, in association with The Yorkshire Post, celebrate growth, innovation and the commercial achievements of Yorkshire businesses.
M-AR was ranked third as a result of its continued and strategic growth
M-AR was ranked third as a result of its continued and strategic growth, which has seen it not just increase turnover but also successfully scale up operations by investing back into its manufacturing facilities.
As a result, the company is successfully undertaking projects of larger scope, including a recently completed 33-apartment development built in London for the UK’s leading youth homelessness charity, Centrepoint.
Emma Digby, executive partner at Ward Hadaway’s Leeds Office, said: “I’d like to take this opportunity to congratulate M-AR alongside all the companies in the Ward Hadaway Yorkshire Fastest 50 list for 2023 for their outstanding achievements.
“The companies in the Fastest 50 demonstrate that real, genuine growth is happening. Yorkshire businesses are thriving because they’ve not been afraid to go against the grain, take risks or follow their instincts at a time when uncertainty is the norm. They’ve been brave, they’ve been bold, and, as a result, rewarded through continued growth.
“This year’s Fastest 50 list, as always, boasts many management teams with an unwavering passion for succeeding who have created high growth, profitable businesses. It’s this spirit, and the business success that it creates, that we are delighted to celebrate.”
Ryan Geldard, director at M-AR added: “It’s a real honour to be named as one of the fastest growing businesses in Yorkshire this year alongside 49 other incredible Yorkshire companies.
“We set ourselves a mission just a few short years ago to increase the size of our operations here at M-AR so that we could take on larger projects, but more importantly, to carve out a place for ourselves so that we could continue to champion the benefits of offsite construction to the wider industry.
“I think this award recognises that we’re well on our way to achieving our goal, and with our passionate and dedicated team at the helm, there is more to come from M-AR, so watch this space!”
