approximately 250 people providing award winning civil engineering and building solutions throughout the
Midlands, North West England and Wales.
The Company remains family owned and managed with Peter McPhillips and Nicholas McPhillips as Joint

McPhillips has been based in Shropshire since its inception and moved to its present purpose built
headquarters at Hortonwood, Telford in 1989. This extensive facility incorporates modern office space with
fully integrated IT infrastructure, Plant Maintenance Workshop and a bespoke Training Centre.
McPhillips has always carried out operations utilising its directly employed workforce which currently stands
at over 210 highly trained, skilled and experienced construction personnel. McPhillips believes this strategy
provides reductions in risk, as well as advantages in the control of quality, resourcing, co-ordination and
health & safety. The Company is committed to local employment, with 92% of personnel living within 20 miles
of its Telford offices.
A modern fleet of plant and equipment ensures that the correct apparatus is available when required. An inhouse Plant Department provides approved servicing, repair and calibration to maintain these assets and a
rolling replacement programme guarantees efficient and reliable machinery.
