It’s a sincere pleasure to be a part of an organisation that takes such pride in its work, and takes such good care of its employees.

Working on the Beaulieu Park Station – the first Great Eastern mainline project in over a century – is a once in a lifetime opportunity, and a challenge I’m relishing.

About Chris
