My professional background is within the building surveying and project management specialisms and over the past 22 plus years I have carved out a career spanning both the property and construction industries. My invaluable experience has been gained within multi-disciplinary consultancies, a national construction company and now the founding director of J3 Partners Ltd, a forward thinking Building Consultancy practice. I formed J3 Partners to offer something fresh and progressive to the property and construction markets, combining the diverse range of skills I have developed over the years. In my early career, I worked for a medium-sized architectural practice within the building consultancy department. This developed not only my breadth of experience for both professional and project work alike, but also the foundation for understanding the fundamentals of the design process. Following on from this position I joined a multi-disciplinary consultancy practice within their commercial investor division, where not only did my professional expertise develop further; including due diligence building surveys, party wall awards and dilapidations negotiations, but also my project management skills were honed. Moving on I joined a national contractor as a strategic Business Development Manager driving a £50m business forward with a particular focus on new build residential and education projects. Responsible for not only strategic development of the business but also the appointment and management of project teams for design and build opportunities during the pre-construction stage. Working for both private and public sector Clients on a variety of projects and sectors, including commercial, education, residential, retail and leisure, has enabled me to successfully manage my Client's aspirations. Understanding successful relationships with Clients and fellow professionals can only be achieved and developed with a collaborative, honest and diligent approach.Specialties: Project Management, Business Development, Building Surveying, Pre-Construction duties, Procurement and Construction process, Contract Administration, Commercial, Regeneration, Education, Residential, Branding and Identity.
