Former Francis Graves divisional director and Coltham Developments' project manager, Simon Mole, has joined Birmingham based Fusion Building Consultancy. 

With heavyweight projects such as the Merry Hill Waterfront redevelopment, the Wolv's stadium and Lafarge's purpose built HQ at the NEC under his belt, Simon's role will be to expand Fusion's growing reputation for project managing large scale commercial schemes.

"We believe Simon's appointment," says Fusion managing director, Steven Jelfs, "Will provide the depth of expertise we need to put us in the running for significant new developments both in the Midlands and further afield.  It also demonstrates we have really moved on a pace as a business, with Fusion able to attract key players into the fold."

Fusion has already been involved in a number of high profile schemes including Moog's move to i54 and they were recently appointed by CPP for its new £20 million manufacturing unit at Jaguar's former Browns Lane site in Coventry. Simon's 30 years experience acting as QS and Employers Agent will further strengthen Fusion's business.  

Simon adds, "Clearly Fusion has been making a name for themselves.  Their work is well recognised in the industry and we have worked jointly on a number of projects together in the past. 

"As a company Fusion provides a first class fit for me, having the same professional ethos on delivering to clients and taking a hands on approach, pulling out all the stops until the job is done and completed to the client's satisfaction."

Simon's appointment is the second high profile industry name to join the company, with Andy Nock, also formerly from Francis Graves being appointed last year. Fusion Building Consultancy was formed in Spring 2002 and is based in Ludgate Hill, employing 11 people.
