About this employer
BAILEYGOMM is the brand name of a trilogy of companies, BAILEYGOMM Ltd, BAILEYGOMM Design Ltd and BAILEYGOMM Group Ltd. Our core business was founded in 1980 and was built on the design of M&E Services with part of the company later morphing into Construction Management.
BAILEYGOMM’s focus, independent of sector, is firstly on leaving a low carbon legacy by implementing the stringent building regulations, BREEAM, LEED and BSRIA codes on energy saving.
As a business, we encourage original thought and innovation, and the development of sustainable design. BIM (Building Information Modelling) is now a massive part of the design process and ensures that practical solutions are developed early on in the design process and reduces the site issues, cost and safety issues.
We take health and safety issues seriously and ensure our staff are up-to-date with all relevant regulations, standards and codes of practice, including the CDM Regulations. Risks are designed out at an early stage, including any future maintenance issues with plant or equipment.
