The Austrian civils giant said the move had accelerated plans to enter the building sector by more than a year.<\/p>\n

Strabag UK has established a new office in Solihull, Birmingham to ensure continuity for the pool of staff joining and to further expand its geographical presence across the UK.<\/p>\n

Former Buckingham Group director of building, Ian Burford, will head the new division, which will target light industrial and logistic centres, data centres, advanced manufacturing facilities and commercial developments.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cMy ex-colleagues from Buckingham Group are thrilled to be joining Strabag UK.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo be part of such a major international company at such an exciting time, where the UK business is growing from strength to strength, is a fantastic opportunity.\u201d<\/p>\n

Strabag aims to replicate in the UK the successes of its wider mainland Europe operation providing end-to-end capability services from finance, design, construction and fit-out.<\/p>\n

Joint managing directors for Strabag UK, Simon Wild and Andy Dixon, said: \u201cWe have been looking to expand the UK business in this area and to be able to recruit such a talented pool of staff immediately was an opportunity we could not miss.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe believe that Strabag Group\u2019s financial stability, combined with its extensive experience, will be extremely attractive to future UK customers.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
