The Resolute Group are working in partnership with a Tier 1 contractor who has won multiple projects and frameworks with National Grid. With a guaranteed 3-year pipeline of work on essential Sub-station civil engineering packages in the North West and North Wales region.

  • Previously managed a smaller £5m - £10m civil engineering scheme
  • Full driving licence
