Making your projects
easier with Duerden Group

It started with a hands-on vision built on experience, local roots and opportunity

Founded by James Duerden, Duerden Group brings a practical, straight-talking approach to delivery. We serve clients locally and across the UK, running safe, tidy sites with clear programmes and one point of contact. Whether we’re preparing ground, installing infrastructure or building out packages, the focus is the same: do the basics brilliantly, communicate well and hand over work we’re proud to put our name to.

Alongside project delivery, we create a local pathway into better-paid work. We partner with charities, colleges and employers to offer structured site experience, mentoring and access to essential tickets. Placements are supervised with RAMS briefings and PPE so people build hours safely and gain real confidence. We hire locally and fund training where it makes the difference, linking new skills to clear milestones, better rates and sustained employment—strengthening teams while opening doors for our community.
