🚀 Exciting Leadership Update at Hopkins

We’re delighted to announce that Phil Trevett has been promoted to 𝗣𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗗𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿, a newly created senior leadership role at Hopkins.

In this position, Phil will lead several key business functions – including HR, Payroll, Labour Resourcing, IT, Facilities, Administration, Compliance Support and Marketing – while also driving critical priorities such as workforce development, digital transformation and operational efficiency.

Over the years, Phil has been instrumental in shaping our people-focused initiatives: from modernising our recruitment strategy and embedding the ELF system, to leading our development framework, SLT profiling and talent mapping. His leadership has already made a lasting impact, and this promotion reflects both the value of his contributions and our commitment to building strong, people-centred foundations across the business.

This appointment marks an important milestone for Hopkins – the first time we’ve positioned a senior leader with a primary focus on our people: their experience, wellbeing and development. We’re excited for the journey ahead and confident that under Phil’s leadership we’ll continue to strengthen our culture, enhance our systems and empower our teams to reach their full potential.

Please join us in congratulating Phil on this well-deserved promotion! 👏

Hopkins Energy & Special Projects are on site and working alongside ABB on the installation of the new shore-to-ship power system at Portsmouth International Port.

The teams are handling containment, high-voltage cabling and control cabling – including all terminations to equipment and e-houses, helping to bring this exciting infrastructure to life.

It’s all part of the 𝗦𝗲𝗮 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲 project, a major step toward reducing emissions and cutting down air pollution in the harbour. Once complete, ferries and cruise ships will be able to plug into clean shore power instead of running their engines while docked. Big win for the environment! 💚

Our work supports ABB’s full shore connection solution, which includes drives, transformers, switchgear, e-houses, and more.

It’s great to be playing a key role in such an important project and we’re proud to help push for cleaner, greener ports. 🙌

We’re proud to have been part of this positive and impactful project with Wates Construction South, supporting the local community near the HMP Parkhurst site.

The amazing team at HMP Parkhurst got stuck in and helped out during Wates Construction’s Community Day at the Isle of Wight Foodbank. The crew rolled up their sleeves to give the Foodbank’s courtyard a much needed refresh – repainting the walls, shed, and planters to brighten up this vital wellbeing space for for staff and everyone who visits, particularly those who do not have access to a garden.

Hopkins also donated some benches, which were a perfect finishing touch and will be well-used by staff and visitors alike.

Big thanks to Wates Group for getting us involved, it’s always great to be part of something that makes a real difference.

We love a good excuse to let our hair down and our Summer Social was the perfect chance to do just that! 🍻

With drinks flowing and games like beer pong, shuffleboard, darts, and even karaoke, it was a night full of laughs and great vibes. ✨
