The Rutherford Cross Construction Forum

Designed to bring together the Senior Finance community operating within the construction sector, the Construction Forum event series provides a platform to share market insights, emerging trends, and perspectives from a panel of industry experts.

During the latest event, the conversation opened with reflections on 2025, a year that proved challenging in the sector for a variety of reasons; and our expert panel included:

  • Alistair McAlinden, Managing Director, Interpath Advisory
  • Stuart Dougal, Managing Director, On-side Advisory
  • Ryan Gilluley, Managing Director, GCM

As the construction sector continues to face rapid change, the need for a strong and forward‑thinking finance function has never been greater. At Rutherford Cross, we work closely with construction businesses to secure outstanding senior finance leaders through our specialist search and selection services.

A resilient finance team gives construction firms the stability to navigate complex project pipelines, manage cash flow with confidence, and focus more time on strategic growth (rather than reacting to day‑to‑day challenges). With the right people in place, businesses are better equipped to scale sustainably, win new work, and deliver consistently for clients.

Please reach out to Hazel Wynn if you would like a confidential conversation to explore what finance recruitment needs you may need in the next 12-24 months, and how we can support your organisation.
