Culham, Oxfordshire

Architect and Head of Design for a modular timber building manufacturer that created curved buildings with impressive environmental credentials. I worked with clients to produce layouts for various medical, education, leisure and residential projects. Buildings are 90-95% completed off-site within our Oxfordshire factory. Some of my time was spent looking at new and innovative building materials and ways to improve the buildings, as well as developing better details and improving energy… Show more Architect and Head of Design for a modular timber building manufacturer that created curved buildings with impressive environmental credentials.

Kensington, London

Job runner on several residential refurbishment and extension projects where contract value is generally around £1m. These are mainly London-based schemes but I have also been working on a Grade II Listed building in the countryside of Hampshire and house refurbishment in Oxfordshire.

Following redundancy from my architectural job I spent a lot of time volunteering for the London-based rivers charity doing clean-up and habitat management events. This eventually led to a short-term full time position co-coordinating the corporate group events. This would involve organising events with groups from companies such as Goldman Sachs who would send teams of employees to carry out volunteering work as part of their CSR but which also provided much-needed funds to the charity.
