Adderstone appoints construction director

Newcastle-based property and development business Adderstone Group has appointed Chris Price as director of Adderstone Construction as it prepares to deliver a number of major projects.

Chris brings 28 years of senior construction experience, having previously held director-level roles with Robertson Group, Tolent, Equans and ScottishPower Renewables. 

He has led projects across the NHS, Ministry of Defence, civil engineering and renewable energy sectors throughout his career.

A member of the Chartered Institute of Building, Chris joins the senior leadership team alongside directors Jonathan Kershaw and Allison Harrison.

Chris said: “The projects Adderstone Construction is taking on are genuinely exciting – complex, ambitious work that not many regional contractors would be willing or able to tackle.

“This is a business with real momentum, drive and purpose, and I can't wait to get stuck in.”

Chris’ appointment comes as Adderstone Construction continues to expand its portfolio of mixed-use remediation, compliance and commercial fit-out projects. 

The business is part of the wider Adderstone Group, which comprises a portfolio of specialist contracting and development companies operating across the UK.

Michael Shipley, group chief executive of Adderstone Group, added: “Chris is a serious operator with a track record that speaks for itself.

“Our pipeline is as demanding as it’s ever been, and having someone of his calibre in the team puts us in a strong position to meet that challenge.”
