Harry Pimm
Commercial Director
Harry is a qualified Quantity Surveyor having progressed over his 16 year career in commercial management, from a Trainee Quantity Surveyor through to Commercial Director. Throughout his career within remediation and earthworks his exposure to lump sum all risk contracts has helped him gain significant experience managing risks and opportunities on large remediation and enabling projects. Harry is an expert at identifying the most cost-effective solution to live project problems, while also looking forward to the potential impacts and future risks and opportunities for follow on trades associated with the project. Harry ensures the client understands the risks and opportunities in getting a project out of the ground.

Made to fit
Work with usOur Story
Jackson Remediation was founded to meet the needs of the maturing brownfield market.
Over the past 20 years, Remediation Contracting has professionalised significantly; the Contractor is now embedded in the client team in a far more collaborative way. In return, the contractor must add value by bringing their expertise to the project at the earliest stage.
We specifically focus on value creation and quality delivery, drawing upon our deep technical expertise and profound understanding of the construction process. We are agile and highly focussed on how contamination issues can be overcome in the most robust yet cost effective manner throughout the project lifecycle. Central to this approach is our firm belief that good value does not have to mean quality is sacrificed.
