The former roof tiler – who was formerly senior contracts manager at the Ocean Way branch – brings 25 years’ experience to position. He already has his sights set on growth for 2019 and will work with the branch’s Contracts team with the aim of securing more projects. New Branch Manager “I’m delighted to be given the opportunity to step into the role of branch manager, and I have a very clear vision for growth, particularly in the short and medium term,” said Paul. “I’ve already got strong relationships with a number of QSs in the region, and I’ll be looking to develop these further to ensure that Bracknell Roofing is in pole position to secure more contracts. “The South Coast branch has a great team and can demonstrate a good mix of experience on projects. New-build housing estates are what we’re well known for but we do get involved in a wide variety of other projects, such as a recent one where we reroofed nearly 300 houses for a local authority – which had specific issues around the conservation of protected animals. “I really enjoying working for a large national company, and it spurs me on to make sure that the South Coast is the star performing branch in the company.” Paul recently completed a Level 3 Institute of Leadership & Management (ILM) qualification, a Level 6 in Construction Management and the health, safety and environmental practice and management accreditation NEBOSH. “Paul is very ambitious and has a clear plan for growth, and we’re looking to support him and the team on the South Coast,” said Bracknell Roofing’s Divisional Director, Simon Smith. >> Read about more new appointments in the news Previous article Rainscreen Manufacturer Warns Clients of Fire Testing FlawsNext article Housing & Infrastructure Boost for Construction as November 18 Figures Break £14bn Threshold Share article You may also like View all News Flat Roofing +4 5 March 2026 Financial Controller at TaperedPlus Returns Industry News +2 4 March 2026 Raise the Roof Celebrates Women Working Together in UK Roofing Green Roofs +3 4 March 2026 New Chair for Green Roof Organisation as Board Reaffirmed Featured Companies +3 26 February 2026 Glidevale Protect Strengthens Product Management Team with New Appointment Sign Up to Roofing Today Stay up to date with all of the latest news from Roofing Today by signing up to our weekly Bulletins… Sign Up Today Get in Touch Check out the latest issue 123 March-April 2026 View Now Past Issues Get in Touch
