Munnelly Group, one of the UK’s leading construction and infrastructure delivery partners, has marked a historic milestone by awarding shares to a non-family member for the first time in its 43-year history.
Long-serving director Will Noble has been granted a significant stake in the business, with the move described by Group CEO Paul David Munnelly as “a landmark moment that recognises Will’s exceptional contribution, loyalty and leadership”.
Paul David, who succeeded his father Phil as CEO in May this year, said: “This achievement has been a long time in the making and is thoroughly deserved. Will has been at the heart of our growth story for nearly 25 years, and this step represents both recognition of his past achievements and confidence in the future success we will build together. It also underlines our commitment to long-term stability and continued success for our people, partners and clients.”
Will Noble joined Munnelly Group in 2001, bringing his vast experience of working on major projects with Bovis, Lend Lease and Laing O’Rourke. Since then, he has played a central role in expanding the company’s major projects portfolio across the UK and was appointed to the main board in 2008. His entrepreneurial approach has opened doors to new markets, projects and services, making a lasting impact on the Group’s performance.
Speaking about the announcement, Will said: “I am honoured to become the first ever non-family shareholder in Munnelly Group. This is a very special moment for me, and I am truly grateful to Paul David and the Munnelly family for the trust they have placed in me. My journey here has been both rewarding and successful, and I am excited to continue working with the board to protect what we have built and to seek new opportunities for growth.”Established in 1982, Munnelly Group has evolved into a leading multi-business organisation, delivering innovative solutions across technology, geospatial surveying, preconstruction consultancy, access control, security, resourcing, payroll and construction logistics.
