The award reflects the growing strength of our engineering and project delivery capabilities and further demonstrates our ability to support nationally significant clean energy and infrastructure developments across the UK."

This is yet another significant UK contract for Sizewell C and it shows once again the value that this project offers to businesses right across the country. Our spend in the UK is now around £5bn, and over a thousand UK suppliers have already benefited from work on the project – that’s thousands of jobs and a big investment in the future of our supply chain.”

The Company operates through three divisions as follows: Services, Land, and a German joint venture.
Services is the core of the Group, providing specialist contracted services to critical projects in the Connectivity, Clean Energy and Environmental markets. Its services include but not are not limited to earthmoving, waste management, materials handling, industrial services, mechanical and electrical contracting, and logistics. With a strong base of long-term customer relationships, and expertise in critical sectors, Services is well positioned to benefit from the substantial opportunities in the UK’s significant infrastructure market.
Land is focused on unlocking value from the Group’s land portfolio through residential and commercial development, as well as strategic disposal opportunities. The proven strategy is increasingly built around realising value from legacy assets in order to return value to shareholders.
Germany operates in specialist industrial raw materials trading and recycling markets. This includes DK Recycling, a specialist recycler of steel waste.
Services is increasingly becoming the central driving force behind Hargreaves’ growth, and Land is being progressively monetised to realise value from its assets, while Germany is being optimised to increase its contribution to the Group’s dividend.
