Cathal McMullan, managing director said: “We have strengthened our in-house expertise in both design and offsite which has played an instrumental part in our growth to date and places us in a unique position to offer a total service to our clients”.

As the business now turns its attention to delivering its ambitious new 2030 strategy, focused on investing in people, technology and facilities, strengthening director level leadership will provide the depth, resilience and strategic oversight needed to support sustainable growth.

These appointments reinforce Kane’s commitment to recognising and developing talent from within, creating opportunities for progression while building a strong and sustainable leadership team for the future. Looking ahead, the company plans to grow its workforce by 36% across 2026 and 2027, supporting the next phase of expansion.
