With over 30 years working in the heritage construction sector, I started my career as a field archaeologist before specialising in buildings archaeology. This led to an interest in traditional building crafts and an MSc in Architectural Materials Conservation, to then working on building conservation projects for a leading specialist contractor to an extensive range of historic structures and major heritage sites throughout the UK.
Becoming a company director, I oversaw operations, tendering, contracts and procurement, with RICS Accredited courses in Construction Law, Building Technologies and Construction Project Planning Tendering and Finance. Having been a contractor, I then moved to a client-side role as Clerk of the Works for Wells Cathedral, managing all aspects of major capital works and planned or responsive maintenance to deliver complete lifecycle project management to all aspects of the built fabric to this significant historic estate.
I therefore offer complete Project and Construction Management services for complex and challenging residential, commercial and ecclesiastical projects, providing bespoke professional services for both heritage and contemporary built environments.
