Warden Construction boosts leadership team with director promotion

Warden Construction has strengthened its leadership team with the promotion of James Flitcroft to the role of construction director.

 James has been promoted from his previous role as operations manager, making him the firm’s fourth director alongside managing director Ian Williams, commercial director Adrian Atkinson, and financial director Dan Culshaw.

 The wider management team also includes HSEQ manager Edwin Esevohare and business development manager Susie Harrison-Serella.

 As operations manager, James was responsible for managing all phases of project delivery, leading teams, overseeing design and risk management, and reporting on contract progress.

 In his new role, he will continue to oversee project delivery while taking on additional leadership responsibilities, playing a key role in driving improvements to the efficiency and quality of Warden’s delivery processes.

 Ian Williams, managing director at Warden, said: “This promotion reflects James’ dedication, hard work, and significant contribution to the business over the past two years.

 “It also highlights Warden’s ongoing commitment to people development, nurturing talent and supporting the continued growth of the company. We are confident that his expertise and vision will further strengthen our position as a leading SME in the construction industry.”

 James adds: “I’m excited to step into the role of construction director. It’s been an amazing journey so far, with plenty of exciting projects in the pipeline, and I’m proud to be part of such a strong team.

 “Working alongside Ian, Adrian, and Dan, I’m confident we’ll keep building on Warden’s success and make our mark in the industry. I’m looking forward to playing my part and continuing to improve the way we deliver projects for our clients and the communities we serve.”

 Warden specialises in sectors including commercial, education, healthcare, specialist residential and sports and leisure.

 The existing management team has instilled a strong ethos of attracting, developing and retaining talented people, as well as putting social value and sustainability at the heart of the business.

 The company recently worked on a number of high-profile projects including Blackpool Youth Zone, Whiston Hospital and the Camden Buildings in Runcorn.
