BEAR Scotland Limited is an integrated service provider in the Scottish roads sector. We pride ourselves on providing a first rate service to our clients based on the whole-hearted commitment of our employees, our flexible approach, our breadth of experience and our operational capability. With offices and highly skilled people located throughout the country, we are best placed to adapt our business to anticipate and exceed the needs of our clients and build lasting partnerships.
Since 2001 we have been proud to be a Trunk Road Operating Company, at different times looking after the North West, the North East and the South East term management and maintenance contracts on behalf of Transport Scotland. Using these commissions as a foundation, we have expanded our business to offer our services in relation to Private Finance Initiative projects such as the ongoing M80 Stepps to Haggs upgrade and the A92 Dundee to Arbroath dual carriageway scheme. We also undertake specialist contracting operations and have developed a strong in-house design business stream allowing us, therefore, to offer our clients a completely self-delivered option.
Our vision – "to be recognised as the leading infrastructure maintenance and management organisation in Scotland" – provides the necessary impetus to drive the company forward, and we look to achieve our vision by being safe, innovative, reliable, sustainable and resourceful, in combination with our friendly, approachable outlook.
I'm going to be part of the support team doing office administration for thirteen weeks. I live in Dundee and because BEAR is based in Perth I'll have to travel 24 miles by bus every morning but I'm up for the challenge. I reckon if I'm there everyday and on time without fail the results will look good on my currently empty CV. I never thought I'd have much luck with working considering I have absolutely no grades but there you go.
