Gilbert-Ash Launches Make Your Mark Campaign

Construction workers who leave Northern Ireland each week for projects around the UK are the target of interest for Gilbert-Ash's Make Your Mark campaign.

Gilbert-Ash, a leading construction, refurbishment and fit out company, has launched a series of digital adverts at the George Best Belfast City Airport, one of the main gateways for construction workers commuting to sites in other countries.

Make Your Mark recognises the outstanding work which takes place across Gilbert-Ash on iconic buildings such as the National Portrait Gallery, the Royal College of Music and The Everyman Theatre. 

The campaign is also aimed at attracting the very best people in the construction industry to further fuel Gilbert-Ash’s continued growth.

Gilbert-Ash Managing Director, Ray Hutchinson, said: "With so many construction workers commuting to other parts of the UK on a weekly basis, we wanted our messaging to be seen at Belfast City Airport. The adverts feature our people and highlight some of the outstanding projects they have been involved in.

"When you join our company, you will have numerous opportunities to work on projects which will form unique portfolios of work which you can look back on with pride and the knowledge that your work made a difference to project, people and the planet.

"We want people who are outstanding - those who are comfortable leading from the front, at home collaborating with others and passionate about working on iconic buildings, many of which will be enjoyed by millions of people over their lifespan."

The company's projects have been shortlisted for the Royal Institute of British Architects' Stirling Prize five times including this year for the National Portrait Gallery, the Lyric Theatre in 2012, the Giant's Causeway Visitor Centre in 2013 and in 2021 for Cambridge Central Mosque, with the Everyman Theatre winning the coveted award in 2014.
