Empathetic and able to read a room, Oliver has the fundamental core competencies critical to building successful relationships.

	The best way to demonstrate Oliver's excellence as a chartered architectural technologist and technical associate for Powell Dobson, is the fact that clients continue to return and request that Oliver is their lead consultant for the delivery of their projects. By creating an inclusive, relaxed but ultimately engaging environment for a design team to work in, he gets the best out of people, time and time again.

−	Award ceremonies of this type are typically characterised by over a dozen award categories – making for a long event that can saturate audiences with information. Thankfully, the AT Awards feature five award categories, allowing more time to present the work of each finalist in greater detail, and giving audiences a deeper insight into the finalists.	+
