A well known and highly respected figure in the industry, Neil Martin took up position as Chief Executive on 19th February.

Neil joins Sir Robert McAlpine at an exciting time, with the business winning and delivering high-profile projects in its core sectors.

Neil will be building on the business’s recent performance, further solidifying our market-leading credentials in our core sectors, including healthcare, commercial office, industrial, infrastructure, major and special projects.

Sir Robert McAlpine chair, Edward McAlpine said: "On behalf of the McAlpine Family, I am delighted to welcome Neil Martin to Sir Robert McAlpine in the role of Chief Executive as we move into our 155th year in business and drive forward our “Evolving SRM” strategy. Neil brings the essential skills and experience required to lead our business, with a clear focus on project selection and excellence in delivery. As well as welcoming Neil, we wholeheartedly thank outgoing Chief Executive, Paul Hamer, for his leadership and work over the last seven years to well position the business for the future."

Sir Robert McAlpine is one of the most respected businesses in the sector. Its reputation for building excellence and enviable 155-year history sets it apart from others. It is an absolute honour to become Chief Executive of a company that has worked on some of the country’s most iconic landmarks. I am excited to join the team and look forward to what the business can and will achieve over the coming years.
