Our Managing DIrector has had a wealth of experience, working in the building trade for over 3 decades, in a range of roles and with expertise in all areas. When working as a Contracts Manager, he managed up to 20 projects and 200 people day to day, which has enabled him to gain insight into the intricacies and nuances that each individual development can create.
