POCHIN CONTRACTORS APPOINTS NEW MANAGING DIRECTOR

Jonathan Pochin has been appointed as managing director of Pochin's contracting division. The announcement comes as Ross Murray leaves Pochin's after 30 years with the Group and the last 10 as a main board director.

Jonathan, 39, has been with the Cheshire-based company for 12 years and has been promoted from his current position as contracts director.

David Shaw, CEO of Pochin's comments: "We congratulate Jonathan on his new role. He is well respected as a leader by all our staff and I have every confidence he will deliver and set the Company on the path to prosperity with the support of the Pochin's team."

"On behalf of the board and the Group, I would like to take this opportunity to thank Ross for his valued contribution to the development of the Group's activities over that time. On behalf of all his friends and colleagues at Pochin's we give Ross our best wishes for the future."

Jonathan adds: "Due to the current market conditions, this is proving to be an extremely challenging time for all construction companies. Having risen through the ranks at Pochin's, I understand every part of the business. We have some excellent schemes under construction with leading developers and good opportunities for new work in the forthcoming months. With the support of the excellent team we have here, I am looking forward to steering the company into better times."
