Caddick Appoints New Business Development Director Amidst Continued Growth

Caddick Construction has appointed Scott Clark as Business Development Director for Yorkshire and North East as the business continues to grow in its core markets across the regions.

Scott’s appointment will see the promotion of his predecessor, Helen Drennan, to Construction Group Business Development Director, including its Midlands and North regional construction businesses.

Scott joins Caddick Construction from Skanska where he worked with National Highways to deliver major projects across the strategic road network. Scott also spent seven years in business development at ISG with a focus on the defence and justice sectors.

With a remit to support Caddick Construction’s expansion across Yorkshire and the North East, Scott will oversee work winning and performance in the business’ core sectors, including industrial, residential, healthcare and offices.

Scott will also be focused on Caddick Construction’s strategy to balance its project portfolio across the private and public sectors, the latter including a drive to increase Caddick’s presence on regional procurement frameworks.

Scott’s appointment is accompanied by the promotion of Helen Drennan, who joined Caddick as Business Development Director for Yorkshire and North East in 2022.

As Business Development Director for Caddick Construction Group, Helen will now have a broadened remit across all regions and businesses that fall under the Construction Group, including Caddick Civil Engineering and the Group’s facades contractor, CCL Facades.

Paul Dodsworth, Construction Group Managing Director, comments: “Scott has an excellent track record of leading business development in construction, and with his experience working with the MoJ and MoD through the Crown Commercial Services framework, he has a very strong background in the public sector. This experience will be vital in our long-term plans to steadily grow our project portfolio and ensure we have a balanced roster of private and public projects.

“Since her appointment in 2022, Helen has been a fundamental part of our continued expansion and success, and her promotion to lead business development across the Caddick Construction Group will ensure we continue to achieve consistently high standards as we grow.”

Scott added: “Caddick has a very strong brand and I’m excited to be part of taking the business’ reputation to the next level. I am passionate about building client relationships and ensuring we give our customers a voice; delivering high standards is only possible if we really understand our customers' needs. I look forward to developing our offer and being part of the Caddick team as we take on new and exciting projects.”

Helen continued: “Growing our portfolio and our footprint means growing our team and capability. Part of this is ensuring we align partnerships with the right people so that we continue to operate with integrity, creating a positive working culture and delivering exceptional standards for our clients. We’re very excited to have Scott on board and look forward to continued success for each of our regional construction business as well as that of Caddick Civil Engineering and CCL Facades.”
