I am an experienced Architect on a quest for a new and exciting challenge. I consider myself an all - rounder with experience of working in the Education, Commercial, Residential, Retail and Leisure sectors.  As for design, I believe the best buildings emerge from a clear concept and a well-defined brief. I am passionate about Architecture, highly motivated, highly skilled and technically very sound. I am committed to the pursuit of excellence and I enjoy mentoring others as well as learning new skills. I am a talented designer with excellent management, communication and job running skills. I have a strong sense of leadership and an eye for detail. I have a keen interest and sound understanding of the materials which make up the built environment. I have very high standards and I know how to get the best out of people because I understand what makes people tick and what motivates them. I am a team player as well as a team leader and I have good interpersonal and communication skills, a sense of humour and a great sense of professional pride and integrity. I like people and enjoy being sociable.  I offer the ability to manage a team of people and plan workload and cost control as well as the ability to design exceptional buildings. I have in depth knowledge of construction detailing, preparing NBS Specifications for large and small projects from inception to completion on site.  I am comfortable working as part of a team and I can relate to people at all levels. I have experience of traditional JCT forms of contract administration as well as NEC contracts. I am a skilled AutoCAD and REVIT user and have extensive knowledge of BREEAM and sustainable design. I have detailed knowledge of Passivhaus using 'fabric first' principles . I have sound knowledge of planning process and Building Regulations.  I am looking forward to the next challenge.
