Strengthening Our Construction Leadership at RMS

At RMS, delivering high quality retail construction has always been a fundamental part of how we support our partners.

As our project pipeline continues to grow, from large scale store builds to complex, multi-service transformations, we are continuing to invest in our senior team to ensure we maintain the highest standards of delivery across every project.

We’re pleased to welcome Paul Sands as Head of Construction and Mike Weaver as Construction Project Manager, further strengthening our leadership capability within this area of the business.

This continued investment is led by Chief Operating Officer, James Davies, who oversees RMS’ operational delivery and is driving the growth of our construction capability as part of our wider retail transformation offering.
