Paul Spiller spent nearly 25 years at contractor before leaving in spring under rejig
Former Sir Robert McAlpine London commercial director Paul Spiller has teamed up with his previous boss at the firm to become group commercial director at McLaren.
Paul Spiller left McAlpine in the spring after 24 years at the business following a restructure, having become commercial director eight years ago.
He joins McLaren today and will report to group managing director Paul Heather, who arrived at the firm last year having left McAlpine the previous summer where he was in charge of the London business.
Spiller, who will also sit on the main board, said: 鈥淛oining such a professional and resilient business brings huge opportunity. I am delighted to contribute to such a strong team.鈥�
Heather added: 鈥淧aul brings a wealth of experience and relationships from across the UK construction industry with both customers and the supply chain, providing excellent strategic insight into new markets and sectors.鈥�
Spiller will be running the rule over McLaren鈥檚 work across its major projects, London and South, Midlands and North and UAE divisions.
Earlier this year, McLaren, which recently moved into new offices at Canary Wharf, brought its London and South team under a single business unit headed by Darren Gill.
McLaren said it is on course for a turnover this year of 拢1bn, having posted income of 拢752m in its last set of accounts for the year to July 2022. Chairman Kevin Taylor said Spiller would 鈥渟upport our strategic growth plan, exploring opportunities in new markets鈥�.
This year McLaren has picked up several high-profile jobs including the 拢90m Seal House scheme at London Bridge, a 拢160m deal to refurbish a 1960s office block in Victoria for Landsec and a 拢90m job to revamp the Angel Square building next door to Angel tube station in Islington.
