Morton to engineering director

UK: Cleanroom and laboratory design and construction firm, Boulting Environmental Services has promoted Jonathan Morton to the position of engineering director.

Morton has been with the company since 2004, when he joined as a senior heating, ventilation and air conditioning designer. In 2009, Jonathan progressed to the role of project manager, where he delivered many successful projects for blue chip pharmaceutical clients.

More recently, he was promoted to the role of design manager for a multi service term contract for a major customer.

“I joined BES when the company was made up of just nine people,” explained Morton. “The company is now 120 strong and I’m excited to be involved in helping the company to grow further and reach new heights.”

“The company has experienced significant growth in the last three years, during which the turnover has trebled,” explained Steve Marsh, Boulting Environmental Services MD.

The company has recently relocated to new offices at Sandbrook Park, Rochdale. At 11,000ft², it is double the size of its previous base with room for further growth.
