CLARK Contracts has hailed the contribution of director John Mooney, who is celebrating 30 years with the Paisley-based business this year.
John began his career training as a chartered accountant at Ernst & Young between 1985 and 1989, before spending six years with a general contractor. He joined Clark Contracts in 1995 as financial controller before being appointed finance director in 2001.
The company said John has been instrumental in leading the steering group, which champions the firm’s Customers 1st initiative, corporate social responsibility activities, and continuous improvement across all departments and divisions. Under his guidance, the group has raised over £50,000 for company-nominated charities and made contributions toward enhancing employee benefits and overall satisfaction.
Commenting on this milestone, John said, “I am delighted to celebrate this 30-year milestone at Clark Contracts. Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to witness the continued growth and success of the business and remember when we achieved the milestone of delivering our first project over £1m to now delivering projects upwards of £30m.
“Our people are at core of the company’s success, and it has been fantastic to work alongside some incredibly talented people and observe the consistent progression and development of our employees. When I first joined the company over 30 years ago, we had 27 employees and since then have now expanded to over 280 employees delivering projects across the UK.”
Gordon Cunningham, MD of Clark Contracts, added, “Over the last 30 years, John has been an integral part of the management team, providing a solid financial foundation that has supported the growth of the business from a turnover of £2m in 1995, when he joined, to over £130m in 2025. This growth is a testament to his commitment, leadership, and invaluable contribution to the business.”
