Mathew has worked in the fields of SFS, Partitions and Ceilings since leaving school. When he grows up he would very much like to be Marty McFly!
Mathew Bates
Commercial Director

Simon has worked in all aspects of construction since the age of 16 and relishes the ever-changing demands of the industry. If you have ever seen his driving, you would be right to guess that his favourite film is The Italian Job (1969).
Simon Jones
Project Director

Andy has been getting angry at shoddy tender enquiries since the turn of the millennium. He sees himself as a Troy Bolton type character due to his unerring joie de vivre and musical talent.

Natalie joined Sparta from a commercial background in the retail industry and is enjoying the varied challenges that construction brings – please check back at a later date for a film fact (once she has actually watched a film).

Mike has been looking after construction pennies since 2005 and has worked on many a prestigious project for main contractors, and he turned to the dark side of subcontracting in 2018. He once represented his country at the European Indoor Trampolining Finals and would have taken gold if it weren’t for a rusty spring!
Michael Boyes
Commercial Manager

Shaun has been a Project Manager since the beginning of time, prior to this he served his time as a Joiner. If he were a film character he thinks he would definitely be Katniss Everdeen.
Shaun Bates
QA Manager

Dave has worked at Sparta since 2016 and earned his stripes the old fashioned way as a partition fixer. He tries to keep it quiet but he actually discovered gypsum, and was a key player in the development of what we today call a plasterboard!
Dave Metcalfe
Project Manager

Before selling his soul to join management John served his time as a Dryliner. However you have to delve much deeper to uncover his more niche skills. in addition to being an accomplished marksman, Sparta let John go on sabbatical now and then as he is often called up for Stunt driver duties. You may have seen his name credited in such classics as “The Fast and the Furious”, “Fast Five” and “Furious 7” to name but a few.
