Our People

I enjoy working at Jones Bros because of the people, the collaborative environment and the pride we take in delivering quality work. It is a business that values practical thinking, continuous improvement and doing things properly.

What I enjoy most is the people, it’s a real family atmosphere on site where everyone looks out foreach other. No two days are the same, and that mix of teamwork, variety and getting stuck in is what makes the role so rewarding.

I am a Project Manager specialising in heavy civils infrastructure. With a hands-on approach and a strong understanding of site operations, I focus on delivering all types of civil engineering projects from planning through to completion. I enjoy bringing teams together to drive successful projects while upholding the highest standards of safety, environment and quality.

In my role as Graduate Bid Writer, I review and produce technical submissions for tenders and frameworks that lead to live projects. In addition, I create case studies, templates, CVs and produce pre-qualification questionnaires. I particularly enjoy the variety each bid brings, as no two projects areever the same.

I began my career with Jones Bros 50 years ago, making me the longest-serving member of the team. Over the years, I have operated a wide range of vehicles and machinery, including 4-wheeler and8-wheeler tipper lorries, articulated lorries, lowloaders and dumpers.

I enjoy working as part of a collaborative team and having the opportunity to work on a wide range of projects. It’s rewarding to know that my work helps shape the future, and that sense of contribution makes me proud. I also value that every project brings something new, with different challenges to keep learning and developing. Being able to work alongside experienced colleagues allows me to continue building my skills and knowledge within the industry. 

As a Senior Contract Manager, I support project teams throughout the full project lifecycle, managing contracts, commercial risk, and change. I work closely with site teams to provide practical, down‑to‑earth support that helps projects run safely, efficiently, and fairly. An important part of my role is promoting the continuous improvement of Health, Safety,Environmental and Quality standards across our projects, supporting the ‘Together Safer’ culture and ensuring everyone goes home safe. What I enjoy most is working collaboratively with people across the business and contributing to the successful delivery of well‑managed, high‑quality renewable infrastructure projects across the UK. 

There is lots of variety in my work and every day is different, so you’re continuously learning and overcoming new challenges, which I really enjoy. I also love the responsibility of leading my own team. Crucially, my colleagues, particularly my direct manager David N, are open and approachable so I know I have people I can turn to for help.

I first joined Jones Bros thanks to a recommendation from an Engineer I studied with at college, beginning my career as an Apprentice Engineer. For anyone starting out or thinking about a career here, I would say: think big, work hard, and stay grounded.

If I had any advice for anyone thinking about joining Jones Bros, it would be this: I am living proof that with enough dedication, you can really build a career here.

In my role my duties are varied, no two days are the same but mainly I deal with visitors, answer the telephone and deal with the fitter’s invoices. I originally joined Jones Bros to cover a maternity leave but have ended up staying for 12 years. JonesBros is a good company to work for and I enjoy the friendly atmosphere here at our Head Office.

I have worked at Jones Bros for 10 years and am an experienced Dozer and Excavator Operator. I genuinely enjoy the role and take pride in what Ido.
