The existing team of four has also taken on a new recruit to support growth. Judith Middleton joins the existing team of three as Quality Management Administrator which includes consultants David Stobbs and Robyn Black.
Austin continues:
“Jude is joining our team at a crucial point in our growth. Our clients demonstrate a real commitment to health and safety, quality, decarbonisation and standardisation and as such, we expect client requirements to increase three-fold, so she will be integral to the success of operations here.
Our key area of growth is around decarbonisation-related projects which includes retrofit of domestic and commercial buildings. We have developed good relationships already with some key companies who are keen to demonstrate their commitment to net-zero and standardisation in the run up to 2050 and we expect to finish on a strong twelve months of trading.”
