Project Manager
What expertise and background do you bring to the table?
I began my career working on-site with a Tier 1 Main Contractor, gaining hands-on experience in national infrastructure projects across highways, rail, water, and power sectors. As part of my professional development, I completed a year-long design secondment with an independent consulting engineering firm, where I am now a Chartered Civil Engineer. Afterward, I joined a specialist engineering firm and delivered the enabling works for a flagship commercial redevelopment in prime central London. I’m excited to have joined the Circle Developments team as a Project Manager in Spring 2025.
Can you outline the responsibilities of your role?
As a Project Manager, my role is diverse and adapts to the unique needs of each client and the stage of the project lifecycle. I focus on ensuring projects are delivered efficiently and on time while fully understanding and aligning with the client’s requirements. Building and maintaining strong relationships with clients and key stakeholders is central to my approach. My typical responsibilities include developing detailed, logic-linked programmes, managing budgets, and leading design and consultant teams to successful project outcomes.
Describe your experiences and growth at Circle?
Since joining Circle, I’ve had the opportunity to get involved in a variety of projects and deepen my understanding of the Pre-Contract stage, which complements my technical background from working with contractors on-site. I’ve really enjoyed collaborating with diverse clients on different schemes, including the Westminster Schools Co-Educational expansion and several redevelopment projects converting former office blocks into Co-Living spaces.
What has been your favourite project?
I have particularly enjoyed working on two repurposing projects that involve converting existing office buildings into Co-Living residential units. I’m passionate about applying innovative building techniques to create more sustainable solutions for clients. One project, located on the edge of the Barbican Estate, has been especially rewarding as it gave me the chance to navigate the planning restrictions associated with working in a Conservation Area in central London. It was an insightful learning experience.
What brings you joy outside of work?
I’m a keen sportsperson, with a particular passion for running and cycling. In the summer of 2023, I cycled 3,000 km across Europe, following the Loire River on France’s west coast, then the Rhône, and finally from the source of the Danube all the way to Budapest. It was an incredible adventure that combined my love of endurance sports with exploring new places.
