He is very active in our defence and security sector and leads projects with the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, the MOD and Boeing Defence. As well as supporting these major clients, he also leads regional projects with regional design teams.
Phil says, “at Ridge we have the best of all worlds. We are a big practice that allows us to work on major infrastructure and building projects with many of the UK’s best clients; however, we remain agile and grounded and can flex our approach to deliver the smallest of projects. Working and maintaining local relationships with our longstanding clients is so important to us, and throughout our period of growth our customer base has developed, but our customer-focused approach remains the same. We are proud of our repeat business and longstanding relationships.”
