Dan Lucas, Pre-Construction Director

 

Employed since. 2019

Describe your role: My role as Pre-Construction Director is to lead Winvic’s Industrial Pre-Construction function, shaping our work winning strategy. I lead a team responsible for client engagement, tender selection, bid strategy, cost and risk management and supply chain strategy. Every tender presents different challenges, so a key part of my role is bringing these disciplines together to develop a clear, competitive, and deliverable solution that meets the client’s objectives and supports Winvic’s continued growth.

Tell me about your career path leading up to your current role. I started out as a Graduate Site Engineer and worked my way through to project management, working on a variety of schemes before taking up a position in design management. This move gave me the opportunity to become more rounded in my understanding of the industry, as it was focussed on the pre-construction stage, something I felt was important for my own development. After gaining the experience of pre-construction including bid and framework management, I decided to further progress my career by joining Winvic as a Pre-Construction Manager. I was then promoted to Pre-Construction Director in 2025. 

Describe working at Winvic in 3 words. Rewarding. Challenging. Valued.

Why Construction? Ever since I can remember, construction has fascinated me. From the simple, through to the most complex of schemes, each is unique. Every project is successfully delivered, despite any operational or timescale challenges, by bringing a hugely diverse workforce together. We all work towards the same goal and continuously improve from lessons learnt each time. I love how the industry, and especially Winvic, embraces using the latest technology to be innovative and finds solutions to problems, whilst helping to protect the environment for future generations. Construction is both challenging and rewarding and I am proud to be part of it.

What attracted you to Winvic? Winvic is a market leader in the industry, and the leadership of the business is truly unique. The thing that struck me instantly was the vision and attitude to how a successful construction company could operate – that is, the ‘Winvic Way’. It is in everything that is done and is embraced within the business across each of the sectors and departments. Even with all the challenges, changes, and complexities of construction over the last twenty-five years, the core values of the business and the vision of how it operates have remained.

Do you have any advice for people wanting to join Winvic? If you are looking for a main contractor within the construction industry who is people centric, forward thinking, innovative and sustainable amongst many other positives then Winvic will be for you.

Harry Onslow, Technical Manager

 

Employed since: September 2017

Describe your role.
I joined Winvic as a Design Manager in 2017, initially working across both Industrial and multi-room projects. I progressed to Senior Design Manager before being promoted to Technical Manager, where I now work within the Industrial sector.

My role involves overseeing the technical and design delivery of multiple projects, supporting our Design Managers and wider project teams from pre-construction through to completion. A key part of the role is providing technical guidance, managing design risk and ensuring that our projects meet the requirements of our clients, end users, statutory bodies and current legislation.

No two projects present exactly the same challenges, and I enjoy working collaboratively with our internal teams, consultants, subcontractors and clients to find practical solutions. I also really enjoy supporting and developing the people within our Design team and seeing them progress in their own careers.

Describe working at Winvic in 3 words.
Collaborative, challenging, rewarding.

Why construction?
Every project is different and brings its own technical, commercial and logistical challenges. You work with a huge variety of people and disciplines, but ultimately everyone is working towards the same tangible goal. There is a real sense of achievement in seeing a project develop from an initial concept into a completed building.

What attracted you to Winvic?
The culture and the way the company approaches its work really stood out to me. Relationships with employees, subcontractors, consultants and clients are important, and there is a genuine focus on working collaboratively to deliver the right outcome. It’s not just about bricks and the bottom line.

Do you have any advice for people wanting to join Winvic?
Be prepared to be challenged and don’t be afraid to contribute your ideas. Winvic gives people the opportunity to take responsibility and develop, and good ideas are listened to regardless of job title or experience. Being a team player is essential; successful projects rely on working closely with colleagues, clients, end users, consultants and subcontractors.

Frank Hayes, Senior Project Manager

Employed since. January 2002.

Describe your role. I started as a foreman on Winvic’s first ever new build and it seems like yesterday! I progressed and developed with the company, and the industry, to become a project manager; I enjoy the issues and challenges that come with each new day as well as being agile, adaptable and thinking outside the box. I feel lucky to be able to interact with a multitude of people from all walks of life, solve problems and create something worthwhile with them, before going home with the feeling that you have achieved something. In five years’ time I hope I’ll be doing the same thing – it may sound corny, but I love what I do.

Describe working at Winvic in 3 words. Rewarding, challenging and satisfying.

Why construction? I was enticed by the somewhat simple reward of creating modern living spaces; be it a place of work, a home or a leisure facility. We may be working with steel or concrete, but ultimately the structures are for people and will be of use to communities and the built environment for years to come.

What attracted you to Winvic? Joining a young company was exciting, but Winvic’s owners and the first team members held motivating ambitions and attitudes – I couldn’t say no because of the people and their shared vision.

Do you have any advice for people wanting to join Winvic? I would advise anyone going for any job in any industry to be friendly, open, dynamic, adaptable to change and embrace opportunities, but these are attributes we regard highly at Winvic. We are an ever-changing company, going from strength to strength and there are many chances for employees to excel, but you have to believe in yourself, the projects and Winvic.

I love what I do as I get to work with different teams on a variety of projects, coming up with creative ideas of how to make projects come to life during the tender stage.

Aside to my main role, I am proud to be a STEM Ambassador. Having the opportunity to encourage future generations to consider a career in construction, by showing them the creative roles within this job sector, is really exciting.

Tell me about your career path leading up to your current role. I started off with an interest in architecture but throughout my A levels my curiosity in how things were built started to grow, so I chose a degree in Civil Engineering. When looking for a placement at university, I came across Winvic at a careers fair. After speaking to a Trainee Site Engineer I was impressed by what they had to say and I applied. I went on to do my ‘Year in Industry’ placement with Winvic and thoroughly enjoyed it. After completing my degree, I returned to Winvic as a full-time graduate Site Engineer.
