Britcon has strengthened its Yorkshire team by making three new appointments at offices in Wakefield.

Brian French has joined as senior quantity surveyor, while Tony Mulcrone has also joined the company as site manager. In addition, Craig Bell has been recruited to the Britcon Engineering Services (BES) division as structural steel 3D (Tekla) draftsman.

Mr French has over 40 years' experience in the building, civil engineering and fit-out sectors, as well as having worked in project cost management for private commercial, local authority and NHS projects. At Britcon, he will take commercial responsibility for Eddie Stobart and York University.


Mr Mulcrone has a strong background in engineering and will add value on construction projects with a heavy emphasis on sub-structures and external works.

Elsewhere, Mr Bell has worked for a number of Yorkshire steel fabrication firms in draughtsman, buyer and estimator roles. At BES, Craig is currently working on a Bulk Store for ABP in Kings Lynn, and Rolls Royce in Lancashire.

Paul Clarkson, Managing Director at Britcon said: "We are delighted to bring Brian, Tony and Craig on to the team at Wakefield where they will be a great asset to the existing structure. This is a result of continuous growth for us in the region and will help to facilitate our plans in the near future. The Wakefield office supports our Lincolnshire office well and also provides a more local base for some of our team."
