Commins’ appointment follows the opening of a Henry Brothers office in Manchester after several recent successful contract wins in the region. These include the refurbishment of The University of Manchester’s Chemistry Building, Glossopdale School and work for the Defence Infrastructure Organisation.
He brings 50 years experience in both construction and civil engineering.
Most recently he was regional managing director for Kier Building in the North West for six years, and prior to that managing director for Balfour Beatty in the North West and North Wales territory.
Managing director of Henry Brothers Construction, Ian Taylor, said: “Peter is very well known and hugely respected in the industry. We are delighted to have appointed him to spearhead the growth of Henry Brothers in the North of England.”
Henry Brothers Construction is part of Northern Ireland-headquartered Henry Group, which includes manufacturing and contractors ranging from external construction through to interior fit-out.
