This month, we’re shining a spotlight on our fantastic engineering team at 25 North Colonnade, a 390,000 sq. ft. building spanning 17 floors in Canary Wharf, managed on behalf of our customer, JLL.
Following Jaguar securing the account in early 2026, welcoming the existing team through our TUPE process was a key part of establishing a successful partnership. Building trust and making colleagues feel supported from day one were central to the transition. The team’s positive attitude and willingness to embrace change helped make the mobilisation a real success.
Led by Contract Manager Chris Perkins, alongside Ellie Cloud, Administrator, Zak Marrion, Lead Engineer and Max Knight, Engineer, the team have demonstrated real collaboration and technical expertise.
Their skills were put to the test recently when a major generator failure required an urgent solution. Working together, the team coordinated the installation of a temporary generator in just 72 hours, involving 15 cables routed across 16 floors.
Beyond engineering, the team also supports wider community and environmental initiatives, including river clean-ups and the building’s rooftop beehives.
Account Manager David Randall praised the team’s approach, highlighting their professionalism and positive attitude throughout the transition.
A huge thank you to Chris, Ellie, Max and Zak for sharing their experiences and giving us an insight into what makes the site such a success.
