LAYING THE FOUNDATIONS TO GO FURTHER
John Paul Construction announces three new appointments to its board as the company seeks to build on recent momentum and optimise its next five-year strategic plan.
Liam Kenny, Managing Director, announces the appointment of Henry Scanlon, Mick Kelly and David Dillon to the board of John Paul Construction. These appointments recognise both the talent of the people within the business and the opportunities for future growth.
Henry Scanlon’s role as Civil Engineering Director has seen him empower a division in Ireland and the UK and has positioned the company to strongly support Ireland’s National Development Plan 2040. While Mick Kelly’s experience across bid management, planning and project delivery has seen him work with a range of blue-chip clients in the manufacturing and life sciences sectors while building a balanced perspective on the industry as a whole.
The company has also appointed David Dillon as Non-Executive Director. David brings to the board over 30 years’ experience mainly with CRH plc, in a career that involved leadership positions across the US and Europe. Most recently he was a member of CRH plc’s Executive Committee from 2016 – 2023 where he served as President, Strategy & Development, and as President, CRH Europe.
Commenting on the announcement Liam Kenny noted that:
‘Over the last five years the company’s turnover has grown to €736m with a team of 600 people, while also increasing our average project size to €150m All of this has been achieved on the back of a clear plan that focused on safety, digital transformation and diversification. I am incredibly excited by what we can achieve in the next five years and the major contribution Henry, Mick and David will make on that journey’.
