Galliford Try announces double contract win

The building business of housebuilder and construction group Galliford Try has been awarded two new major office contracts worth a combined £77m.

The business was selected as preferred bidder by Northamptonshire County Council to build its new headquarters in Northampton in a £38m project that will see the construction of a 17,600 square metre four-storey building as well as local regeneration.

Meanwhile, offshore engineering company Subsea 7 has chosen Galliford to construct its new office building at Sutton in Surrey. Under the £39m project, the group will build a new 150,000 square foot office space and associated facilities.

Galliford Try executive chairman Greg Fitzgerald said: "We are delighted that Northamptonshire County Council and Subsea 7 have entrusted us with such significant projects.

"We have a strong reputation in the office sector and we look forward to providing these two clients with the first class facilities they require."
