A Yorkshire-based building services engineering company has been awarded a three-year maintenance contract to carry out all electrical maintenance works for Hull College.
GW Power was established in Hull in 2014 by managing director, Daniel Haley, who started his career as an apprentice at the college. He said: “It’s a real full circle moment for me! We have been awarded the electrical maintenance contract for the full college estate following a competitive public tender, with several companies bidding for the work.”
GW Power provides a full range of renewable energy, mechanical and electrical solutions to public sector clients and businesses across all industries. The company now employs a 43-strong team and is actively recruiting electricians, plumbers, gas and heating engineers, renewables specialists and apprentices throughout 2025.
Daniel added: “In the past 12 months we have employed five apprentices from Hull College, and they will no doubt get the chance to work with our team at the college over the coming years thanks to this contract win.”
Head of facilities and contracts at Hull College, Matthew Blowman, said: “We’re thrilled to partner with GW Power. The company’s expertise, reliability and commitment to delivering exceptional standards of service makes it the perfect choice to support the smooth operation of our campus.
“We look forward to working together to ensure our facilities continue to offer an exceptional experience for our students and staff.”
Daniel added: “Hull College played a pivotal role in shaping my career, and I’m incredibly proud to be awarded this contract. Walking through its doors as a young apprentice sparked the journey that brought me here today.
“This partnership allows GW Power to give back to a place that means so much to me, while continuing to nurture the talented apprentices who are the future of our industry.”
GW Power-Safe expects its turnover to reach £12m in 2025.
