RED chief Graham Sturge MCIOB sees another year of controlled growth for 2025 In the year to April 2024, RED doubled pretax profit to £2m maintaining profit margin at 1.7%. Based on a strong order book, RED is forecasting another year of strong controlled growth that should generate revenues of over £130m to April 2025. The firm, which operates from business centres in London and the south west, delivers a mix of projects ranging up to £50m. Its special projects arm targetting projects under £10m in value has secured several ‘cut and carve’ projects for the growing office overhall market in the capital. Graham Sturge, CEO at RED Construction Group, said: “12 months ago, we predicted 2023/24 would be a huge milestone for the business, and I’m proud that we’ve met that and more, with a turnover comfortably over the £100m mark for the first time. “We’ve also sustained a robust profit margin, an important element of the stable, considered growth we want to achieve year-on-year. “Whilst we celebrate this, we’re also very conscious of the volatility of our market. “Our focus for the coming year remains the same – risk management, stable growth, and supporting our supply chain partners, that are often hit hard by that volatility and rarely spoken about publicly.

Projects include the landmark 130,000 sq ft office scheme in the heart of Westminster for Tellon Capital, Berkeley Estate Asset Management’s comprehensive refurbishment of 8 Lancelot Place, a live office building in Knightsbridge, and significant works to Manhattan Loft’s iconic St Pancras Renaissance Hotel. https://lnkd.in/emmxC5yi

Hi everyone, Phil here. I'd love to let you know a bit about me. I began my journey in construction in 2008, as a building cadet with PBS Building with my first project being the New Acton South Apartments in Acton. At this time and for the following 3.5 years I was working with PBS full time, undertaking a Degree in Building and Construction Management at UC full time, and also working a second job in retail on Sundays. Basically having no life outside of work and university during my mid-20s. I was fortunate enough to also work on the New Acton Nishi project team. However, in 2013 the construction company I was working for went into administration. Every staff member was made redundant, except 2 people, one of the other project managers and myself. This chain of events carved the way for me to start my very first company and was directly engaged by the developer (Molongo Group) to complete the commercial part of the project. Between 2015 and 2018, I went back to working for a couple of large building companies as a Project Manager and expanded my project experience to include more new build and fitouts over various sectors including office, health, and education. During this time, I am proud to have many of the projects I was involved in and/or managed win several awards including MBA Project of the Year 2018 and International Building Project of the Year 2015 in London. Driven by a desire to innovate and exceed industry standards, I decided to pursue my own pathway and founded Vamos Group in 2018. The vision was to bring the innovative and leading-edge design, construction methodology, finishes, materials, and technology used to deliver extraordinary results in commercial construction and adapt them to the high-end residential space. This vision is slowly coming to life which I am very proud of and invite you to follow along as I continue to push the boundaries of what's possible in design and construction. The mission…..to change the high-end residential landscape in Canberra. The first target… the empty shell in the New Acton South building where I started this journey. The empty shell being a 450m2, 2 storey penthouse overlooking all of Canberra’s icons and incredible landscape. Completed in 2019, featured on Chanel 9s Open Homes Australia and awarded judges commendation at the 2020 MBA awards. That was the start of forging a new and exciting era for myself and real estate in Canberra and beyond. Let's connect and explore this vision come to life as I commit to bringing a new age and look to this beautiful city.
