Tom Wraight

Regional Director - Midlands

Man in grey checked suit jacket and light blue shirt against teal background with white diagonal lines.

My time at Careys started in 2003 when I began work on site at ASDA in Stevenage as a kerb layer/groundworker.

I worked on jobs up and down the country including Colchester Garrison and two major schemes for GlaxoSmithKline where I was promoted to Project Manager. Following that I was made Contracts Manager for the Milton Keynes region and today am proud to lead Careys across the Midlands as Regional Director.

I spend my time away from work being a best friend to my wife and dad to our two lovely girls and when I want to take a little time for myself, I’ll either be out walking the dogs or on to the golf course.

Construction is the only thing I’ve ever done, and I am incredibly passionate about it but in my role now, I have found a way to combine my lifelong passion for the tangible results of construction with the equally rewarding opportunity to mentor the next generation. My journey from a kerb layer/groundworker to a Regional Director at Careys is a testament to the growth opportunities within the industry and the value of professional development programs. This is why I champion the industry through my role as a governor at Milton Keynes college, encouraging the next generation to explore the opportunities within construction further and give them the skills necessary to enter the industry.
