Harley Haddow expands UK presence with new Birmingham office
We’re proud to announce the opening of our eighth UK office, in Birmingham, strengthening our presence across the Midlands and marking another important milestone in our continued growth.
Birmingham is our third new office in four years and launches with an established team of 11, led by Director Scott Lydon and supported by Regional Director Jeremy Silvester.
Bringing extensive regional knowledge and experience, the team will strengthen our ability to support clients across the Midlands with mechanical, electrical and public health engineering expertise.
Based at Runway East in Birmingham, the new office combines the team’s knowledge of the regional market with the experience and expertise of our wider UK business.
Scott Lydon, Director at Harley Haddow, said:
“We know the regional market and its players very well and that, supported by the solid foundations of a 76-year-old business, is a recipe for success.
“Harley Haddow’s tactical move will ensure continuity across the built environment and provide a strong platform for growth.”
Jim Kellachan, Director at Harley Haddow, added:
“Establishing a Birmingham operation was the natural next step in our expansion plans and it’s very opportune to have acquired an established team that’s ready to go.
“As a business committed to sustainability, it’s important for us to have the right people in the right places and the skills and geographic footprint provided by a new Birmingham operation will further strengthen the company.”
The Birmingham office adds further depth to our regional capability and supports our ambition to deliver sustainable, high-quality engineering solutions for clients across the UK.
