Move has seen enlarged Northern business created
Bam has confirmed that its North-west director is leaving the business after more than 20 years.
Ian Fleming has been in charge of the region since 2017, having joined Bam in 2000, and worked on a series of high-profile schemes including Manchester City鈥檚 training academy, the No1 Spinningfields office scheme in Manchester and the National Graphene Institute also in Manchester.
A Bam spokesperson said: 鈥淓arlier this year Ian Fleming decided that he wanted to leave the business this year and this has provided a natural opportunity to bring the regions together.鈥�
The firm鈥檚 current North-east regional director, John Phillips, will become regional director for the newly created Northern region which Bam announced at the start of the week.
Fleming鈥檚 CV includes stints at Balfour Beatty, Kier, Tarmac and Alfred McAlpine, later bought by Carillion.
A rejig is seeing the number of regions at the 1,100 strong business in England cut from six to four with a fifth region covering Scotland.
The firm has said a number of job losses will be made as a result but added: 鈥淲here possible we are seeking alternative internal roles.鈥�
The spokesperson said all the regional director roles in Scotland, London and Western are unaffected.
The South-east region is being merged across Bam鈥檚 London, Western and Midlands regions with the latter renamed Central and headed by current South-east boss Adam Harding.
