SES Engineering Services has secured another student accommodation construction contract in Manchester, this time with Vita Student.

On behalf of Bowmer and Kirkland (the main contractor appointed by Vita for the project), SES will be responsible for constructing Building 9 - a constituent development within the £750 million mixed use Circle Square project.

The 18 storey, 90,000 sq ft building will, when complete, house 384 students in the city centre.

It marks an extension of SES's involvement in the Circle Square scheme, where they are already present on the Building 10 and 11 student accommodation developments.

Steve Joyce, SES' Business Director for North and Scotland said of the contract: "I am absolutely delighted to be working on behalf of Bowmer and Kirkland, on such a significant scheme for the city of Manchester, as well as being given the opportunity to continue to support such a ground-breaking provider of student accommodation as Vita Student."
