Lendlease<\/a> has named Simon Gorski as its new managing director for construction in Europe<\/h2>\n

With nearly 15 years of experience at Lendlease, Simon Gorski joined the company as a commercial manager in 2004. He has undertaken various roles through the business ever since and leaves his current position as the executive general manager, UK regions to take on the new role.<\/p>\n

Simon\u2019s successes while head of the regional business include delivery of the largest prison in the UK and securing the contract to repair, refurbish and restore the Grade 1 listed Manchester Town Hall<\/a>. He also won Lendlease the role of sole partner with Scape on the National Construction Framework<\/a> for Principal Works, delivering large-scale construction projects above \u00a350m for the public sector.<\/p>\n

Simon Gorski\u2019s career began as a quantity surveyor. He then attended the Royal Military Academy at Sandhurst ahead of a decade of service in the British Army. The former Army officer was instrumental in the delivery of major defence programmes including the Regional Prime Contract for the South West, and Project SLAM, a contract to provide 23,000 of the Ministry of Defence<\/a>\u2019s bedrooms for single personnel.<\/p>\n

Lendlease\u2019s new managing director for Construction, Simon Gorski, said: \u201cMy focus will be to ensure Lendlease remains a leader in the construction sector and continues to provide an exceptional service to our customers. We already have some of the finest talent in the industry working at Lendlease<\/a>, and I have absolutely no doubt that we will continue to deliver great schemes and win new business.\u201d<\/p>\n

Simon takes over from Neil Martin who was recently promoted to the role of chief operating officer for Lendlease in Europe.<\/p>\n

Dan Labbad, CEO for Lendlease Europe, said: \u201cAt Lendlease our construction business is synonymous with the delivery of high-quality projects on time and budget for both the public and private sectors. Nobody is better qualified to continue that record than Simon. He is an outstanding member of our team and thoroughly deserves his new role.\u201d<\/p>\n
