Hobson & Porter is due to start on site next month for a new £3m training centre in Grimsby and a £1.5m housing scheme for MWS Group in Keyingham.

Work is already underway on a the £4.1m JZ Flowers facility in Newport, the £3.1m Creative Media Centre at Manor School in York and the £300,000 East Stand extension at Craven park, the home of Super league rugby club Hull Kingston Rovers.

The firm’s minor works division also currently has £5m worth of contracts on the books.

Managing Director Jason Papprill said: “We have a reputation for quality and innovation in our approach to delivering our clients projects and understanding their own unique business needs and constraints, which gives us flexibility not normally associated with a construction company.

“The ability to diversify and tackle projects across the property industry means we can bring innovation and lessons learned in new areas, to clients we have traditionally served for many years”

“The Company has grown organically over the years, but like others in the construction and property sectors, we have been hit by the downturn and the cuts suffered within our traditional client base.

“Forty years of prudent business however, has allowed us to weather the storm and ensure we are still here to tackle the challenges ahead”
