We have good road links to the M11 and M25 and excellent rail connections to London and Stansted Airport, just 35 minutes and 20 minutes away from Harlow respectively.

We have a separate commercial team that will provide commercial support. The contractors used have been specifically tendered and are not partnering contractors.

- Well-developed people skills, able to communicate well with a variety of stakeholders
- Experience of working with the JCT form of contract
