Jim Ward has been appointed director of BAM Construction for Scotland with immediate effect.
He has had a 40-year career with BAM to date, spanning construction management roles and leading many high-profile projects, including the V&A Dundee and BAM’s present Atlantic Square scheme.
Ward replaces Bruce Dickson, who is taking up a new wider role within Royal BAM Group.
He said: “I am privileged to be leading BAM Construction in Scotland - we have a fantastic business here with well-established roots, a very capable supply chain, and remarkable clients.”
BAM’s business in Scotland employs around 110 people directly and a further 1,000 via its supply chain.
Its current portfolio includes current project such as Capital Square and The Johnny Walker Experience in Edinburgh, several health and leisure centres, education projects spanning primary schools to large campuses, and museum and art gallery developments.
Ward added: “These continue to be challenging times for construction, so I know that we must be great team players and support our people and our supply chains to work safely through the pandemic.”
