Our People
We Are Doings Things Differently.
We are proud of our people and the progress we are making together.
We have over 300 people across dedicated divisions providing specialist deconstruction, demolition, strip out, structural alterations, pre-refurbishment, pre-demolition and circular economy audits, and builders’ works services.
Our senior leadership team is hands-on, sharing decades of expertise to guide clients and ensure project success. Every one of our clients and projects benefits from their personal involvement.
We hold real and open conversations early on in the project process so we can understand how to achieve the safest, most sustainable and most efficient outcome. By challenging assumptions, we are finding better ways of doing things.
KpH has earned a reputation for hard work, straight talking and doing things differently.
We Work Together.
We’re an employee-owned business where our people share the same values and work towards a shared goal to deliver solutions precisely, safely and sustainably.
We are committed to creating a culture of loyalty and collaboration. Many of our team, on site and in our head office, have been part of KpH for years.
We are proud to have formed long-standing partnerships with other organisations who share our commitments to deliver sustainable solutions, to protect the environment and to reduce carbon emissions.
All of our people uphold the high standards we expect – ensuring every site and every project runs safely, smoothly, and on time – the KpH way.
Nurturing Talent.
We care about our people and have created an environment that enables every individual to thrive personally and professionally.
Collaboration is at our core and by working together and learning from one another we help each other achieve more.
We know there is a significant skills gap in our industry and we are doing what we can to close this. We work with other contractors, our supply chain and local education providers to align training provision with industry need and to improve accessibility.
We offer many different career routes; internships and work experience, site-based mentoring, and paid apprenticeships. Let us help you fulfil your potential and ambition.
Joshua Norris
Apprentice – candidate nominated by Drive Forward
“Since I started with KpH in 2024, the supervisors and site managers have been incredibly helpful in introducing me to the industry and ensuring I felt comfortable with the tasks assigned to me.
Working alongside my colleagues has also contributed to my sense of ease in the workplace.
I’ve been encouraged to excel in the industry, for which I am very grateful, and I’ve already acquired numerous skills, including important life skills like organisation and structure”.
Charlie Morris
Environmental and Sustainability Advisor
“I joined KpH in 2024 as a Sustainability Advisor, attracted by the company’s progressive approach to reuse and circular economy principles in construction.
Since then, I’ve been supported through professional development, including achieving my BREEAM AP qualification, and have taken on a growing role in delivering pre-demolition audits, site waste strategies, and reuse planning across multiple high-profile projects.
My focus is on driving measurable carbon reductions and identifying practical reuse opportunities on site.”
Megan McDonald
Estimating Team Leader
“I joined KpH as a Junior Estimator in 2022 after finishing sixth form. Straight away I was matched with a mentor who has continued to give me so much encouragement and guidance to build my technical skills.
Within a year I moved into the role of Estimator, taking on more responsibility for resource planning and pricing, and in 2024 I was promoted to Estimating Team Leader.
I love working with like-minded people who take pride in their work and have fun along the way. As a mentee I learned the value of listening and learning from others, and I do my best to instil these qualities across our team.”
Promoting Pathways.
We care about promoting social mobility through sustainable education, training and employment opportunities. We collaborate with organisations to help us connect with harder-to-reach young people and those who are marginalised or disadvantaged.
We want to make it easier to enter, develop and progress in construction. We do this through:
Delivering Change.
At KpH we are building a workforce that reflects the make-up of the communities in which we work. By rolling out unconscious bias training, and making it mandatory for our leadership and supervisory teams, we are able to recognise and challenge biases in our recruitment processes and in our behaviour.
We are taking active steps to improve equality, diversity and inclusion:
