Key to the company’s success is that they focus on the retention of long-term clients, and they place significant emphasis on employee development. The successful career paths of Chris, Seamus and Colm are testament to this.

The new directors join an established board led by managing director Aaron Hughes, and fellow directors Damian Murray, Tania McCartan and Stuart McFeely.

The changes to the board also include the retirement of John Coalter, Civil Engineering Director. John’s dedication and contribution over the last 30 years have been instrumental in shaping GEDA’s success and the company wish him well in his retirement.
