2022
Tunbridge Office Closed
Within the reviews and practices undertaken above on how to maximise as well as increase productivity of the services we provide, it was subsequently agreed to be most beneficial for all our employees to be together in one engineering hub. The decision was therefore made to close the Tunbridge Wells office and relocate colleagues into the Dorking office which was finally undertaken in June 2022.
Michael and his co-equity Directors have long been planning for the continuation of vkhp, and it was originally thought that an MBO would have happened sooner, but Covid and restructuring meant that this was inevitably delayed. However, a successful completion of the intended MBO occurred on 01st June 2023, with Fritzgerald Pereira as the newly appointed Managing Director and Harvey Morris as Finance Director. Going forward the Directors of vkhp are Fritz and Julian Klippenstein as the main engineering/technical Directors, and as previously stated, Harvey as Finance Director, all of whom have been working within vkhp at a senior management level for a significant total number of years.
Michael, Chris and Karen continue to work very much as they have been and will do so for the foreseeable future, acting as consultants to the company as opposed to Directors. All three will continue to aid the company as they have done for all these years with their extensive professional advice, albeit in a reducing capacity over time.
