Morris & Spottiswood boss Jon Dunwell joins the 21CC podcast to discuss the workforce issues impacting the contractor and the wider fit-out sector in the aftermath of ISG’s collapse.

While many firms in the supply chain were left reeling after ISG went into administration last September, Morris & Spottiswood saw an opportunity to offer a lifeline to the people and projects operating in its remit.

Within a matter of months, the company had saved more than 100 jobs by absorbing ISG’s retail team.

The latest episode of the 21CC podcast explores the fallout from the collapse and delves into the challenges and opportunities facing Morris & Spottiswood during a period of ambitious expansion.

The discussion also addresses:

  • The big skills challenges across the fit-out and M&E market
  • How contractors can survive – and even thrive – despite significant industry uncertainty
