After thirty-two years working from Bow we have relocated our Head Office to a purpose-built space in Thurrock, Essex
In June 2021 we relocated our Head Office from Bow, East London, to purpose-built space in Thurrock, Essex. The 1.6 acre site contains refurbished offices for twenty admin and management staff, meeting rooms as well as space for our plant, fleet and materials stores.
“It was quite a wrench to leave our home of the last 32 years,” says Clifford Devlin’s Head of Administration, Siobhan Clifford, “However, the new site offers us excellent transport links with the Dartford Crossing on our doorstep and the A13 and M25 just 5 minutes away. This will make us more accessible for staff and visitors while enhancing our responsiveness for reactive contracts throughout London and the Home Counties.”
The site in Bow had also become awkward to operate from explains Siobhan:
“It was definitely time for us to move on,” she says, “When we moved to Bow the location near Devons Road was essentially an industrial site and a perfect location for our yard. In recent years the area has become increasingly gentrified with industrial units re-developed for residential tenants and arts/crafts workshops who were less tolerant of the presence of our plant, machinery and operatives.”
“The need to move was some time ago factored into the long term succession planning for the business and has now been neatly choreographed to coincide with the change of ownership to the EOT and the formation of the new Board of Directors.”
The new address is: Clifford House, Hedley Avenue, West Thurrock, Grays, Essex RM20 4EL
The telephone number remains the same: 020 7538 8721
