“Market conditions are also extremely competitive. Against this backdrop, it has been particularly satisfying to record a rise in revenue to £853.3m and a profit before tax figure of £11.3m in our latest accounts.
“This is only possible because of the hard work and dedication of our teams. So too, our divisional strength, sectoral expertise and regional presence provide a well-balanced service offering.
“Undoubtedly, difficult challenges remain on the horizon, but this solid financial platform positions us well to look forward with confidence.
“We remain focused on quality projects rather than chasing revenue. Our strategic approach to work winning has accounted for an exceptionally strong pipeline.
“This leaves us well placed for 2021 with strong levels of secured work.”
