Kier North Tyneside managing director Peter Brynes adds: “Kier Building Maintenance has always had a good working relationship with Sherwood and we are looking forward to continuing to work with them in North Tyneside. Kier believe it is very important to recruit locally and by working with Sherwoods, we hope to achieve this.”
