To close out the year, Managing Director Allan McGill visited Wallace Whittle offices across the UK to connect with teams and share our plans for 2025
In late November and early December, our Managing Director, Allan McGill, embarked on a nationwide tour of our offices as part of a staff engagement initiative. With a final stop in Belfast scheduled for early in the new year, the roadshow has been a valuable opportunity to connect with teams, promote transparency, and reinforce Wallace Whittle’s commitment to collaboration and quality.
Early Career Conversations and Leadership Meetings
Each visit began with a focused session for employees who have joined Wallace Whittle in the past six months. Over lunch, Allan heard their impressions of the company, gathered feedback, and discussed their initial experiences. These conversations are instrumental in shaping how we support and integrate new team members across the business, especially our younger staff members and apprentices.
The roadshow also included strategic discussions with each office’s leadership team and management. Allan met with Location Directors to ensure operational efficiency and to address any region-specific needs. This leadership engagement allowed for open, proactive discussions on challenges and opportunities within individual offices, ensuring every team is well-supported.
Spotlight on ESG
Alongside Allan’s briefings, staff had the opportunity to attend an engaging presentation by Nick Hayes, our ESG & Sustainability Director. Nick provided invaluable insights into the growing importance of ESG considerations in the built environment.
The session also highlighted PathWWay, our upcoming digital platform designed to support our clients with innovative, data-driven ESG solutions and how ESG principles integrate seamlessly with our MEP services to deliver sustainable, high-quality outcomes for our clients.
These discussions underscored the importance of staying at the forefront of sustainability, innovation, and digital advancements in our industry. Nick’s presentation was met with enthusiasm, sparking important conversations about how we can better support clients and continue to drive positive change.
During the staff briefings, Allan outlined key updates, business performance highlights, and upcoming initiatives that will shape the future of Wallace Whittle. In an open-floor Q&A session, staff were invited to ask questions, share feedback, and engage in dialogue.
“This roadshow has been an invaluable opportunity to meet with our teams face-to-face, celebrate successes, and gain insight into how we can continue to grow. Wallace Whittle is built on collaboration, and these discussions help ensure that we’re aligned and focused on delivering excellence.” – Allan McGill, Managing Director
These sessions reflect our commitment to transparency and teamwork as we continue to build a strong, connected, and forward-thinking business.
