After ten years at Jack Lunn Ltd, Rob Jerram has been promoted from commercial manager to board director. With more than 30 years’ experience in quantity surveying across all key construction sectors including, residential, commercial, industrial, care and education, Rob assumes a directorial role in contract tender and management processes.

Luke Simeunovich first joined Jack Lunn Ltd in 2002 as an apprentice joiner, climbing through the ranks in site management and contracts management over 21 years. His considerable industry expertise and intimate knowledge of the Jack Lunn culture places him well as a board director helping to drive the future of the business.

Jack Lunn Ltd is associated with the Jack Lunn Group, a long established and highly successful privately owned property and development company in Yorkshire. Founded by Jack Lunn in 1949, the Group has maintained private ownership through three generations, with his son Roy Lunn and now his grandson Andrew Lunn as Chairman.

Andrew Lunn said, “The Jack Lunn brand is recognised for delivering high quality, valued engineered solutions for its clients and our family driven values have allowed us to stand the test of time. My late Grandfather, Mr Jack Lunn, was a real advocate for the old-fashioned art of conversation and a hands-on approach to establish intimate knowledge and trust with clients. We are good at what we do, and good relationship management through our highly skilled team is fundamental to that.”

“I am delighted to announce these extremely well-deserved promotions at Jack Lunn Ltd. Having Nicola, Rob and Luke working alongside me on the Board is both reassuring and exciting as we drive ambition through the next chapter of the business.”
