Metnor Construction, part of Newcastle-based Metnor Group, has won a number of new contracts, including a £17m project with Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, as it celebrates its 20th anniversary.
The division operates primarily in the private residential sector including care homes, hotels and leisure, data centres and retail sectors.
Based at Metnor House in Killingworth, the company employs 60 people who carry out large-scale projects with values ranging from £1m to £50m.
The company which employs 60 people, is based at Metnor House in Killingworth, Newcastle upon Tyne.
Despite challenges including the pandemic, turnover is forecast to reach £90m in 2022.
Recent work for the business includes two private residential schemes at Market Quarter in Rugby, and another in Warrington, alongside a healthcare centre in Kettering.
The company will now work as the principal contractor at the new NHS training centre at Cramlington Hospital.
The project is a 72,656 sq ft development which will accommodate a clinical skills and nursing training centre of excellence with conference facilities, office space, meeting rooms and flexible areas for clinical use, alongside a drive through Starbucks.
Chris McDonnell, pre-construction director at Metnor Construction, said: “We’re really delighted with the win at Cramlington Hospital. Our growing reputation and credentials in the healthcare sector coupled with our local North East delivery team have played a significant role in helping us secure the appointment. It’s a fantastic and exciting opportunity to be supporting the NHS in delivering this key facility and we look forward to getting started.”
Chris Cant, chief executive of Metnor Group, said: “We’re delighted to be celebrating our 20 year anniversary with such a prestigious win at Cramlington Hospital. We’re forecasting record turnover and it’s thanks to our fantastic staff, supportive clients and suppliers that we’re tracking such ambitious growth.
“Like many firms in the construction sector, the last two years have been the most challenging in our history. Continuing supply chain issues and soaring prices remain at large, but due to our robust tendering procedures we’ve been able to deliver projects on time and on budget.”
