MCTAGGART Construction has honoured and celebrated the 25-year service anniversaries of six of its employees.

The Ayrshire-based firm said that all six individuals have played a ‘pivotal role’ in contributing to the reputation of the award-winning company.

MD Janice Russell said, “We are privileged to commemorate their remarkable achievements and extend our gratitude to each of them for their substantial contributions to our growing status as one of Scotland’s specialist home builders. The foundation of our company’s strength lies within our people, and we passionately believe that by investing in their growth – providing support, and acknowledging their efforts – we have fostered an exceptional team, which positively impacts upon our daily operation.

“The longevity of their service and our exceptional 96% staff retention stands as testament to our commitment to understanding and connecting with our team, enabling them to achieve their ambitions, cultivate their careers, and most importantly, take pleasure in their work every day.”

Praising the contributions of the employees, Janice highlighted the remarkable dedication and outstanding performance of each individual:

Mandy McKerrell, our dedicated cleaner, is an essential part of the team and significantly contributes to maintaining a pristine and welcoming environment that is truly appreciated by all.

Driver John Kelland, affectionately known as ‘half load’, has always been willing to go the extra mile to keep McTaggart moving. He is known for his safe and efficient deliveries, often in challenging conditions, that have ensured our projects run smoothly. He’s a fantastic ambassador, both on and off the road, for the company.

William Keirs, a skilled and dedicated operative has made a significant impact on the numerous projects he has worked on over the years through his hard work and practical competence. This week marks William’s retirement as he bids farewell to the working world to embark on a well-deserved retirement.

Andrew Kennedy’s journey from a site joiner to the role of customer care supervisor is a testament to his exceptional craftsmanship and commitment to ensuring client satisfaction.

 

Kevin McCormick has been a valuable member of our team, starting as a joiner and advancing to the position of assistant site manager. During his tenure, Kevin has contributed to prestigious projects such as that at Laurieston, which was recognised as the RIAS building of the year. Reflecting on his journey, Kevin expressed his pride and gratitude for the opportunity to have worked with McTaggart’s for a quarter of a century

Ally Anderson has been an integral part of the McTaggart Group for over 25 years. As a company director, his enduring commitment and knowledge have been instrumental in driving the company’s growth and success. Ally has significantly contributed to the evolution of the business and operational management structures across the group. With comprehensive oversight of essential support functions such as finance, IT, and HR, he plays a critical role in steering the company towards continued excellence and innovation.

Janice concluded, “These six remarkable individuals embody the essence of McTaggart Construction, and we are grateful for their loyalty, dedication and outstanding contributions.”
