Earlier this month saw the topping out of the new Monifieth Learning Campus, marking a significant milestone in the construction of the £66.5m building for Angus Council. The milestone was celebrated with a unique and creative art installation from pupils at the current Monifieth High School who painted a vibrant mural at the roof of the new campus. Capturing the move from the current school to the new campus, the mural will serve as a permanent time capsule within the building, as it will be hidden once construction continues. Robertson Construction Tayside was joined by representatives from the Council, Procurement Hub and other stakeholders to view the mural and add their signatures to commemorate this collaborative achievement. With the steel frame now complete, the Passivhaus school will open its doors to pupils in July 2025. #Construction #education #sustainability #celebration
About us
We’re one of the largest family-owned construction, infrastructure and support services businesses in the UK, and we apply the same principles to every aspect of our business today that we did over fifty years ago when Bill Robertson began with his joinery firm in Elgin. Over the years our sustainable growth has enabled us to invest in our business, the future of people and communities, and to deliver on major projects, housing schemes and facilities management for customers nationally. We have the ability to accept big challenges, and build positive, mutually beneficial partner relationships. At the same time we think locally, working with stakeholders and the supply chain to deliver services and infrastructure that will stand the test of time. Today we employ over 3,200 talented people across a broad range of roles including construction, timber engineering, facilities management, capital projects, property development, regeneration, civil engineering, building services and housebuilding. Ultimately, our approach is about making progress safely towards a sustainable future. It’s the Robertson Way. #WeAreTeamRobertson

Introducing our summer 2024 interns... Thirteen students from around the UK have joined Team Robertson as part of our 12-week Summer Internship Programme. Our new recruits have been paired with a business or function whose expertise complements their field of study to help maximise their learning experience. Working alongside our teams as we deliver for our customers and communities, interns will have the opportunity to contribute their ideas and perspectives, and develop their skills and commercial awareness. Chief Executive Officer Elliot Robertson offered his advice on making the most of the weeks ahead, “Use every moment to the maximum, ask questions, grow your knowledge and use this as a stepping stone to a professional career. Continuous learning is a key part of our culture and success – the only limits to what you can learn in the next 12 weeks will be the limits that you place on yourself. I look forward to meeting you soon.” Welcome to Team Robertson! #earlycareers #summerinternship #construction #facilitiesmanagement #engineering #learninganddevelopment

Robertson Construction Central East has successfully handed over the £12m 4D Cellular Medicine Building to The University of Edinburgh. Connecting to the East and North buildings of the Institute of Genetics and Cancer, the new five-storey building houses data analysis areas, laboratories and other specialist spaces to support vital research. Delivering the new space within a live environment, our team ensured any disturbance to the rest of the campus was minimal. The project was procured through Procurement Hub and marks our 14th completed project for The University of Edinburgh.

We are delighted that Glentress Forest has won the ‘Best Project for Improving Greenspace and Green Infrastructure’ award at the Outdoor Recreation Network Success Awards 2024. Supporting the Glentress Masterplan, Robertson Civil Engineering delivered works for Forestry and Land Scotland which geared up the forest in Peebles to host events at the 2023 UCI Cycling World Championships. This award recognises the significant work and lasting social and economic benefits of the project. Judges praised it as an excellent example of how master planning around a sporting event can create infrastructure, enterprise and recreational spaces for all. Awarded through the Procurement Hub Major Projects Frameworks, works comprised over 9km of mountain bike and network trails with new earth structures and bridges alongside a new car park and upgrades to the existing one. Aligning with our commitment to being environmentally responsible, zero waste was sent to landfill by recycling soil on-site in lieu of quarried material to backfill culverts, which were used as part of the events for both spectators and riders.
