McLaren hires ex-ISG regional boss for north east expansion

Beaumont worked for 14 years, latterly as regional director for the North East and North West business units.

Joining Beaumont at McLaren Construction to run the new division are regional commercial director David Faulkner and regional pre-construction director Richard Harding.

Faulkner joined McLaren in November after a 19-year career at ISG’s Bradford office, ending in a role as a commercial manager.

Harding joined McLaren in July after 10 years at Morgan Sindall, where he had become the Leeds-based Regional Pre-Construction Director for Yorkshire, North East and Cumbria.

Both bring a wealth of experience across private and public sector projects and key relationships.

McLaren Construction’s chairman, Kevin Taylor, said: “Based in Yorkshire, Andrew and the team give us the relationships we need to complete a strong national offer.

“His experience fits perfectly with McLaren Construction’s existing expertise in a full range of residential, commercial and industrial sectors and our ambitions for more clients in living and leisure and places on more public sector frameworks.”

McLaren Construction joins sister companies McLaren Property and McLaren Living, which already have a presence in the city and a portfolio of major projects in the region.
