“From my first engagement, I was impressed by the team’s dedication to delivering exceptional outcomes. I look forward to accelerating our growth in the workplace sector by truly listening to our clients and exceeding their expectations.”

Sean McNiff, interior fit-out director, added: “Peter is a strategic appointment as we continue to expand our workplace fit-out offering.

“With a client-first approach that has seen us deliver for BT, Deloitte, Santander, and Microsoft, Peter’s leadership will ensure we continue to provide outstanding service across the UK and Ireland.”
