WCM has now become an approved supplier on the Constellia platform.

With this approval we can offer public sector clients a route to market for Construction Management via a streamlined and compliant procurement experience. 

We are delighted to announce that WCM has now achieved Cyber Essentials Plus certification, building on our previous Cyber Essentials accreditation and further demonstrating our commitment to maintaining the highest standards of cyber security.

Cyber Essentials Plus is the highest level of certification within the UK Government-backed Cyber Essentials scheme. Unlike the standard Cyber Essentials certification, Cyber Essentials Plus includes a rigorous independent technical assessment of an organisation's cyber security controls, providing additional assurance that key security measures are operating effectively in practice.

Achieving Cyber Essentials Plus confirms that WCM has implemented and independently verified robust security controls to protect our company data, systems, and clients' sensitive information against a wide range of cyber threats.

Safeguarding our digital infrastructure remains a top priority. This certification reflects our ongoing investment in cyber security, risk management, and continuous improvement, ensuring that we can provide our clients and partners with confidence in the security and resilience of our services.

As cyber threats continue to evolve, WCM remains committed to maintaining strong security practices and meeting recognised industry standards. Achieving Cyber Essentials Plus is another important milestone in our journey to protect the information entrusted to us and uphold the trust our clients place in our business.

We are proud to announce that WCM has officially achieved Cyber Essentials certification. The UK government backed milestone confirms that we have implemented robust, verified security controls to protect the company's data, our systems and clients' sensitive information from cyber threats.

Safeguarding our digital infrastructure is a top priority and this certification reflects our ongoing commitment to cyber security. 

We're delighted to announce that we've become members of  Power by the Hour, an exciting new networking initiative introduced by Yorkshire Air Ambulance.

This fantastic initiative brings together businesses committed to supporting the Yorkshire Air Ambulance as they continue saving lives across Yorkshire every single day. 

We're proud to share that Josh Chappell, our Apprentice Site Manager, has passed his Level  Supervisors Apprenticeship (HTC) at Leeds College of Building with flying colours.

The course covers a broad and demanding range of modules and provides a strong foundation across both technical knowledge and leadership in practice.

Balancing the leve of study alongside his role within the business is no small achievement. With the academic stage now complete and the End Point Assessment officially triggered, Josh is moving into the final phase of the apprenticeship.

We're confident he'll approach it with the same focus and determination - and we look forward to celebrating his success very soon.

I thought it was about time I gave something back. LCB is an institution of high regard and one of a handful specialising in construction. I want to help the students who pass through the college to be the best they can be, both for the industry and themselves. Hopefully that will give them the best chance of the good living that construction has given me."
