History

Since 1966 Robertson has been building quality and creating value throughout Scotland and the North East of England. Originally set up in Elgin by, executive chairman, Bill Robertson as a joinery business, the company quickly developed and began undertaking multi-trades contracts in order to grow the business.

Throughout the seventies and eighties Robertson grew through a mixture of organic growth and acquisitions. By the mid-nineties the construction market place completely changed as the public sector changed the way it procured work. This change would be the catalyst that would allow Robertson to develop greater geographical coverage and increase value.

Robertson were also early pioneers of the government's Private Finance Initiative (PFI) and redeveloped and built Scotland's first PFI hospital, New Craigs, in Inverness.

Today the business has evolved into one of the largest privately owned construction, development and services groups in the country and operates eleven autonomous, individual businesses offering eleven platforms for growth in six sectors of the market place.

Robertson companies consist of six regionally based construction companies, a timber frame manufacturer specialising in commercial and residential timber frame engineering, a facilities management business, an investment business trading in private finance project management and investment, a property development company and a residential development business.
