History

After an apprenticeship as a plasterer and at the age of 22, John Sisk set up the construction business in 1859. [1]

In April 2019, Sisk was removed from the UK Government's Prompt Payment Code for failing to pay suppliers on time. [2] It was reinstated around 10 months later. [3]

The company relocated 200 of its employees into its newly retrofitted head office at Citywest in Dublin in July 2024. [4]
