Vinci announces Chris Pape as MD of Stradform and Weaver


By John Leitch

Chris Pape has joined Vinci UK where he will head up two of its construction businesses, Stradform and Weaver, as managing director.

His appointment was announced by the group’s chief executive David Joyce.

Pape had been left high and dry when Pettifer went into administration a month ago. He had only been with the Warwickshire-based group – as managing director of its regional building division – for a short period.

Prior to that Pape was with Carillion.

Vinci have snapped up a second ex-Pettifer name in the form of Mark Savage who had been commercial manager while at Pettifer.

Stradform has offices in Bristol and Cardiff while Weaver is based in Wolverhampton. Their operating areas are adjacent – in fact their territories overlap in some parts.

Pape’s position is a new one within Vinci.

Answering to him will be John Worrall, managing director of Stradform, and Steve Hudson, director and general manager at Weaver.
