I've just sent you a PM about some opportunities for you. Really worth following it up if you're interested. Regards, Alex

"I'd be quite happy to quote for the work, if you're happy to pay for it". Should nip anything in the bud, so to speak.

We have to do a lot of maintenance works for MF broadcasting poles for a couple of clients, and have to arrange site access well in advance to ensure the transmissions are turned off so they don't fry our PDAs/Tablets/Operatives!

Thank you! The website is incredibly dated (last news article was from 2011 I think?) so may have some information missing. We're going to be launching a new one in the coming weeks so I'm sure it'll have information on all our accreditations and certifications then. Our Arb division was relatively small until the acquisition of UPM Tilhill a few years back, primarily piggy-backing on our GM division; since then its revenues have increased threefold through organic and strategic growth. the financing opportunity is a new concept that was introduced by one of our new directors to help establish teams in strategic areas. We've done similar things in the past with our directly-employed maintenance staff, but never really offered it out to teams that are not already working under the Ground Control umbrella. Its a really exciting time to be with the company right now, watching it transform from a small local company in a converted stable into this national behemoth operating from a purpose built office!

If only! I'd be riding a much nicer motorbike if I were! I'm in operations, coordinating the Grounds Maintenance teams and Contract Managers

Whereabouts was that? i'll check the trackers and give them a stern speaking to

Been going since the 70's, but only in the past decade has it really expanded. I'm not sure about numbers because there are several divisions (Grounds Maintenance, Arb Rail, Arb Utilities, Winter Maintenance, Fencing, Construction) but i'd estimate we're close to 1,000 full time employees now.

If the highlight of my life is taking credit for others work, kill me now! There are a few of us working on increasing the company profile right now, and an accolade like this certainly helps!

Cheers! I cant take all the credit, though!

i know its gonna seem like a lot of hot air, but i'm really proud to say that Ground Control have been named in London Stock Exchange's list of the fastest-growing and most dynamic small and medium-sized enterprises in the UK. 1000 Companies to Inspire Britain | London Stock Exchange Group There were over 4.5 million applicants, so making it in the top 1000 (0.02%) is a real achievement, and a strong indicator of the companies ambitions over the coming years; particularly in the Arb sector.
