Pauls Story

Paul founded Mac with the goal to be different, to be disruptors and to challenge industry practices and deliver what we promise. He began in 2002 with 1 employee and 17 years later the count has risen to over 200 professionals across four offices in Ireland and the UK.

In 2018, mac’s revenue reached €200m / £177m and was listed as the 9th highest grossing construction company in Ireland by Linesight.

When asked how he does it, Paul says “Simple – I surround myself with people that are better than me.”
