Having been in the construction industry for some 30 years, commencing as a trainee with a land survey company working for Clients such as London underground and Bovis.
My career path then moved to working for Main Contractors such as Berkeley Homes, Tarmac, Wiltshier, Jenner Contractors and Bryen & Langley Limited.
My experience includes the project Management in the construction of new NHS Hospitals, Care Homes, Swimming pools for schools and Local Authorities, together with new flats, houses and Civil Engineering works.
