Our journey

From 1998 to now, hear Roger Watts, Trevor Dowd, Matt Clare and Scott Young reflect on Trident’s journey.

“It would be no exaggeration to say that becoming an employee owned business marked an epoch in the history of Trident Building Consultancy. It has been a year of tremendous change, and one that has set the foundations not just for the future direction of the business, but for our renewed values and ethos, and the way in which we regard and appreciate one another. I firmly believe this was the start of something monumental for Trident and we will only build on that.”
Dan Roe, Managing Director
