Our unique joint venture combines an outstanding commercial track record with a genuine commitment to maximising the social and economic gains for local people from this transformative project.
Jobs, investment, rateable income, training contracts, work placements and a commitment to using as many local suppliers as possible will deliver a step-change in our local economy and local communities.
Our focus is on attracting blue-chip companies that offer the very best training, terms and career prospects to deliver long-term change and improvement. All housed in a development that sets the bar for sustainable design and construction.
