As Multevo’s contracting division continues to expand, they welcome new Contracts Manager, Emily Merrick, to maintain and exceed a high level of service delivery across highway maintenance contracts nationwide.
Growing up around the industry, Emily joins Multevo with 17 years of highways experience under her belt and a strong understanding of various functions including health and safety and supply chain relationships, as well as estimating and managing contract key performance indicators.
Commenting on this, she adds:
“Highways maintenance has been a part of my life from an early age, my family ran a small business that undertook highways works for local authorities. This has given me the grounding to understand how important it is to work as a team and support each other.”
With her previous experience at Kier Highways as a Quantity Surveyor and later a Delivery Manager, it’s safe to say she brings with her a wealth of knowledge at a functional and technical level, having led the estimating, planning, programming, and delivery of extensive highway maintenance contracts.
Aside from her knowledgeability of the industry, Emily is also a Mental Health First Aider which will help to support the workplace wellbeing aspirations of the business.
Regarding her new role, Emily shares:
“They say once you find a job you love it doesn’t feel like work anymore and I love working in Highways. I would encourage more women to join the industry, especially in the operations side as there isn’t many of us. I believe anyone can be anything they want to be, just set a goal, and take the first step.”
Commenting on Multevo’s latest appointment, Nick Carter, Director at Multevo comments:
“We are delighted to have Emily join the team, she aligns to the business’s culture and ethos. The business is certain having Emily on board will add value to our current operations and greatly benefit our existing and future clients.”
