SRC expands Newcastle office with new hire

Health and safety, project management and lifting compliance firm Steel River Consultants (SRC) has appointed Adam Robinson to its cost management team following a surge of new work in 2024.

The Newcastle office, which opened in Hoults Yard just a year ago, is part of SRC’s expansion strategy. 

The consultancy, which operates from four UK offices with its head office in Stockton on Tees and other offices in Edinburgh and the Midlands, specialises in cost and project management, HSE and lifting compliance services, with a client base across education, residential, commercial, health and renewables sectors.

Adam, who previously gained work experience with SRC while studying at Northumbria University, is the first addition to the Newcastle team as it works to grow its business and take on larger projects.

He said: “I really enjoyed the range and variety of projects I had the chance to work on while I was studying so I jumped at the chance of employment when it was offered.  

“It’s a great work environment at SRC, being part of an ambitious and professional team. 

“While I recognise that I still have much to learn, I am excited about my future career with SRC because the company is committed to training and professional development to help staff achieve their goals.”

Ben Tremewan, senior cost manager and Newcastle office lead, added: “The last year has seen a lot of hard work since we opened our doors at Hoults Yard, but it has also been immensely rewarding.  

“As we embark on our second year, we are really starting to gain traction within the local market – our head office in Stockton has set the bar high but we’re up for the challenge.  

“As a company we’re keen to create jobs for suitably qualified and talented local people to keep pace with business growth, so with several successful projects already under our belt, we are delighted to welcome Adam.  

“From his work experience with us, he has shown that he has the capacity to become a valued member of the team and with a Masters in Quantity Surveying, he looks set to swiftly make a significant contribution to our success.”
