New jobs are up for grabs after a property firm established its headquarters in newly refurbished premises in Irvine.
Edison Group has taken over 2000 sq ft of a 19th century, two-storey, Grade B listed building at 65 High Street in the town.
Now the firm is looking to recruit an extra 12 administrative team members, including people experienced in finance and HR.
Edison founder and chief executive Calum Melville said: “Irvine is a great location for us, offering lots of opportunities to win construction, refurbishment and project management contracts throughout Ayrshire and beyond.
"We already have strong relationships in the town and the central location of the office means that there is plenty of car parking for all prospective members of the team.
“We are firmly in the market to acquire businesses that are complementary to our group activities and are projecting sales of £20 million on a rolling 12 months basis by the end of 2023, driven both by further, already-planned strategic acquisitions and organic growth.
“Edison Group has decades of experience in starting, buying, building and growing businesses, both organically and by acquisition, driving operational and financial excellence and significantly increasing value for all stakeholders, so we believe we have the right ingredients to succeed in a challenging environment.
Mr Melville continued: “We are investing substantial sums to build an infrastructure and platform to drive growth over the next few years with an expanded offering which includes construction, project management, architectural services, bespoke joinery, furniture manufacture, interior design, interior fit out, all trades, driveways, landscaping, property maintenance and refurbishment."
Edison Group operates throughout Scotland and as far south as Birmingham, providing premium bespoke manufacturing, interior fit, design and project management to local authorities, NHS, central government, charities, dentists and Tier 1 hospitality, retail and construction clients.
