Capstone Construction has significantly strengthened its leadership team through the appointment of two new directors. This move reflects the company’s strategic growth objectives.
- Ian McMillan, previously operations manager, is now the construction director, bringing his extensive expertise to the leadership team.
- Michael Cameron, who has served as estimating manager, steps into the role of commercial director, bolstering Capstone’s commercial capabilities.
- The company’s financial performance and recent projects underscore its growth trajectory and strategic focus.
- Capstone is poised to leverage recent planning approvals and the Green Freeport status to drive regional development initiatives.
Capstone Construction, established in 2001 and rebranded under its current name in 2022 after acquisition by Roy MacGregor, has strategically augmented its leadership by promoting Ian McMillan and Michael Cameron to director roles. This leadership restructuring aligns with Capstone’s growth-oriented vision, as articulated by Managing Director Rhona Donnelly.
Having joined Capstone in July 2023, Ian McMillan’s promotion to construction director capitalises on his background and expertise, signalling the company’s commitment to enhancing its operational efficiencies. Similarly, Michael Cameron, who has been with the company since 2019, assumes the role of commercial director, strengthening the firm’s commercial acumen crucial for navigating complex market dynamics.
Capstone’s financial health is robust, with a reported turnover of £20m for the 15 months to March 2023. The company has already secured contracts worth over £21m this year, including significant social housing projects and a major care home development, showcasing its capacity to undertake varied large-scale initiatives.
The leadership expansion is timely, given the recent planning approval for a substantial housing development near Rosskeen, Invergordon. This project is particularly noteworthy as it represents the first housing venture in the area following the region receiving Green Freeport status. Such developments are central to Capstone’s strategic positioning within the evolving regional landscape.
According to Managing Director Rhona Donnelly, the new appointments are invaluable as Capstone looks to seize the business opportunities arising from the Green Freeport. The company is keenly focused on delivering high-impact projects that align with the economic rejuvenation of the Inverness and Cromarty Firth region.
Capstone’s strategic leadership enhancements signify its forward-thinking approach towards capitalising on regional development opportunities.
