What strengths do you bring to the team?

There is nothing I have not been exposed to in terms of design, build or eventually demolition, which ultimately means I can deliver solutions or solicit the best solutions from internal or external project design teams. In such a diverse and gratifying 30 year plus career, where I have developed and sold engineering businesses, built successful teams and designed across the full range of civil and structural forms, including steel, concrete, timber and hybrid in all sectors… be it new builds, refurbishment or restoration projects… it may sound like a cliché, but it simply boils down to the experience I bring. 

What does the word Client mean to you?

Opportunity to service, lifelong partnership, benefits from mutual association 

What do you enjoy most about what you do?

Satisfaction of jobs going out the door properly designed and detailed, and just the sense of contribution we make through being able to see a finished development. I simply enjoy working with people, be they staff or clients.
