Over the next 30 years, the business grew year on year to the point where it had to move to larger premises to accommodate the ever growing customer base.
t this time Jonathan Boggon (Harry’s son) joined the company and quickly saw additional opportunities for business growth in the long term by adding fabrication services to the business offering. Within a short period of time the business expanded further with the construction of a large fabrication unit (FAB 1), designed specifically for large scale fabrication work.
Sadly in 1994 Harry passed away and the business passed to his son, Jonathan who continued to expand the company with the construction of yet another fabrication facility (FAB 2) attached to the original site. North View Engineering was now becoming one of the largest and fastest growing companies in the Northeast.
In 2005 Jonathan became the sole owner of the business, after buying out the management team, and instigated a significant investment plan to support the next phase of business expansion. Over the next ten years he has positioned the business to allow for further growth and expansion into various global markets including the oil & gas sector, power generation, structural fabrication and the nuclear sector. With the expansion of the current management team and an increase in the skills that accompany them, North View Engineering Solutions Ltd has a very bright and prosperous future ahead of it.Working Hours :£224 and 35hrs per week, Mon - Thur; 9am-5pm,
