Offsite manufacturing

MECHANICAL, electrical and plumbing (MEP) specialist, SES Engineering Services (SES), has announced ‘record’ financial results, with turnover rising 55.3% in 2024 and pre-tax profit increasing by 60.2% to £9.3 million.

The business, which provides design, fabrication and installation of building services, saw turnover grow from £298.6 million to £463.7 million in 2024. This is supported by forward order book growth of £510 million to £1.2 billion.

The firm said the success has been achieved through a collaborative approach to working with customers and a strategic focus on existing sectors, including science and research, commercial, industrial, leisure and public sector, while also developing new markets.

This is backed by a growing workforce of 890 full-time employees, including over 100 apprentices.

“Our transformation extends beyond mere growth,” said executive MD Rob Clifford. “In line with our purpose, we’re reimagining the future of technology in construction. Through sustained investment in advanced digital engineering, smart technologies and offsite manufacturing, combined with striving for excellence in delivery, we are positioning ourselves to become the most profitable and sustainable engineering and technology business in UK construction.”
