ASK LEX is your opportunity to send in business related questions to Lex Russell, Managing Director of UK Materials. We want all our employees to feel they can ask questions of our business leaders and receive transparent answers.

Thank you to those who have sent in questions so far. Where relevant, we will share questions and responses from Lex in future UK News editions.

Here is another question sent in for Lex, along with Lex’s response:

Q: There is a lot of speculation in the news regarding a recession. What are Cemex’s plans for if this happens?

A: If the UK goes into recession it is very difficult to determine how this will affect our business. The Government is talking about using construction as a lever to return to economic growth. Cemex UK has plans in place for the next five years and we will adapt them to react to changes as they happen in the construction industry.

If you have a question, simply send it through to [email protected] and the Communications team will manage this directly with Lex. Written answers will then be provided back to you and, if appropriate, shared in UK News for others to read.

Please note that questions cannot be handled anonymously. We look forward to hearing from you!
