Considering sustainability in project delivery has always been very important to me, as so many buildings are clearly not fit for the future and the scale of the challenge is colossal. I always strive to deliver clients’ visions as efficiently and precisely as possible. I love staying up to date with the latest technologies and knowledge to help me improve my work, whether through reducing environmental impact or achieving more efficient delivery.
I resonate with Circle’s goal to be carbon conscious, as I am fascinated by the potential of green technologies and their adoption in buildings to improve occupier well-being. I’m passionate about making sure buildings work as well in practice as they do on paper, and my postgraduate research focused on bridging this gap. I also make it a priority to stay on top of changing regulations so I can provide clients with clear, proactive advice and deliver robust, resilient solutions.
I firmly believe that carbon optioneering is essential for a successful project and I strive to make clients aware of more carbon‑friendly construction methods. I play a significant role in life‑cycle carbon assessments at Circle, overseeing the production of assessments throughout the company. This role is crucial in mitigating the environmental impact of building projects by considering carbon emissions at all stages, from material extraction to end‑of‑life.
Our focus on carbon at Circle reflects the company’s commitment to leaving a lasting positive impact on construction projects and enabling clients to make fully informed decisions when considering the whole lifecycle of a scheme.

Construction is inevitably unpredictable, I closely work with everyone around me to advise clients on various obstacles and opportunities from feasibility through to completion, ensuring our clients vision are realised.
What expertise and background do you bring to the table?
I started my career as a Placement student, joining Circle during my third year at Loughborough University. Predominantly relying on academic education, I utilised the gradual exposure from being involved within post-contract residential schemes to gain a greater insight into the role itself. The main sectors I have worked on during my career is residential and commercial.
Can you outline the responsibilities of your role?
My role consists of the entire construction process, from providing clients with costing expertise in the design stages right through to managing both the financial and contractual sides of a post-contract project. I aid within the quantification process of cost plans, allowing for key insights into the estimated price of a specific project, ensuring that the client’s budget expectations are both visualised and maximised. Whilst consistently having efficient communication with the client and contracting teams, I can support my colleagues in costing exercises and decision-making processes. Also, as construction is inevitably unpredictable, I closely work with everyone around me to advise clients on various obstacles and opportunities, allowing for a fluent process of dialogue.
Describe your experiences and growth at Circle?
I commenced my career with Circle as a Placement student from Loughborough University. I have since graduated with a First-Class Honours Degree and have committed to joining the Circle APC Chartership Program. With the consistent support from experienced colleagues, I aim to have achieved my RICS accreditation within 18 months after university. Despite only having a short career thus far, I have aided in progressing multiple projects such as Latitude Purple and Wembley Link, whilst also being heavily involved in a multitude of cost plans.
What has been your favourite project?
My favourite project was Wembley Link, which perfectly balanced a challenging yet insightful workload, enabling me to kick start my career whilst dramatically proving that learning construction in a lecture hall is nothing compared to being on-site in person. The 256-unit scheme located in Wembley Central placed me in the deep end of a construction project, exponentially accelerating my learning curve.
What brings you joy outside of work?
Despite being the completely wrong height for any sport, being the 3rd smallest person in the office, I love to take part in most types of sports including football and running. I also have a passion in attending sports events, in hopes of witnessing Tottenham Hotspur win a trophy before I retire in 40 years’ time. Having recently moved to London, I have taken the opportunity to learning new cooking recipes by eating at various restaurants around the city and attempting to copy them. This plays perfectly in my current favourite hobby, spending time on the weekends visiting new pubs with friends and colleagues

I joined Circle in May 2022 as an Assistant Quantity Surveyor and Project Manager. Over time, I have evolved into a more prominent Quantity Surveyor and Employers Agent role. I appreciate the flexibility offered by Circle, allowing me to explore and experience various roles within the company. I have gradually taken on more responsibilities in the two post-contract projects I am involved in and aim to continue my development with the company.
Mountbatten House holds a special place as my favourite project for various reasons. The uniqueness of the building itself, the challenge of renovating an existing frame while reducing its carbon footprint, and the rejuvenation of the fantastic garden terraces are all sources of excitement. I envy those who will have the opportunity to work there upon completion. Nonetheless, I hold great respect for my other projects as well.
I’m always eager to dive into various activities, whether it’s sports, dinners, festivals, or nights out. When I’m not dining out or cooking, you’ll find me cycling for outdoor fun or enjoying a few drinks with friends. I’m enthusiastic about using my holidays to explore new countries and cultures. However, there’s nothing wrong with a cozy night in with a takeaway curry to recharge.

What expertise and background do you bring to the table?
I started my career working on site with various trades, primarily of an MEP background before deciding to become a Quantity Surveyor. Since then, I’ve completed a degree apprenticeship at the University of Greenwich and become a member of the RICS. I’ve worked predominantly on new-build residential, co-living and PBSA projects but have also worked in various other sectors such as education, hotels and leisure, often in listed buildings within central London. Having managed projects through feasibility, procurement, completion and disputes, I have a keen eye for detail and enjoy adding value to projects early on.
Can you outline the responsibilities of your role?
Pre contract, I’m responsible for establishing the clients cost plan, managing and reporting on any movements, risks and opportunities. Key to this process is understanding the clients’ aspirations, project design constraints, construction methodologies and the supply chain. Through procurement I advise on tendering and procurement strategies to agree a route to contract that aligns with the clients’ key drivers and contractor appetite. Post contract, I oversee monthly valuations and cost reports, ensuring clients are aware of the financial status of the project and aware of any potential risks or key decisions required. As with pre-contract stages, engagement with all project stakeholders, including the contractor, is key in ensuring advice is timely and fully informed throughout the contract.
Describe your experiences and growth at Circle?
Since joining Circle, I’ve been introduced to a verity of projects from new build PBSA in Edinburgh to private school refurbishments in London, which will give me a broad range of experience. I’m excited to be part of the team and be more involved in projects in an Employers Agent capacity.
What has been your favourite project?
My favourite project so far has been Shore station, Edinburgh. The project is a mixed-use development consisting of 604 student beds, 18 homes, commercial space and amenity across seven blocks. The site is a conservation area with some listed blocks retained for the development which will require specialist conservation works and provide a range of experience.
What brings you joy outside of work?
Outside of work, I’m usually watching the football, spending time with the family or catching up with friends at the pub. I enjoy fitness and training so try to get to the gym as often as I can. When the English weather permits, I can be found making holes in a golf course while trying to perfect my swing! I also love getting away to see new places, from cities breaks to beach holidays, I’m always looking for another place to add to the list.

There’s a sense of gratification that comes from being involved in a project from its initial conception all the way through to its successful completion.
As a proud Welshman, it will come as no surprise that I am an avid rugby fan. While my playing days are behind me, my involvement with the sport is now limited to watching from the comfort of the sofa or chasing my son around at Rugby Tots. The rest of my free time is usually spent renovating houses and getting involved in anything construction-related projects. It’s a passion that extends beyond my work and keeps me busy and engaged outside of the office.

Following a degree from Oxford Brookes University in Real Estate Management, I started my career as a site-based Project Manager focusing on High End Residential Developments for a Private Developer. I then moved to a Consultancy and worked in both Public and Private Sectors across a range of project types including Commercial Offices, Supermarkets, Purpose Built Student Accommodation and Industrial. I have experience of the entire life cycle of a project.
As a Project Manager, my role begins early in the process. We collaborate closely with our clients to review the project brief, assess feasibility, and identify key risks and opportunities. From there, we appoint the most suitable consultant team for the project, which may include Designers, Planners, Solicitors, and others, and lead them through the design development phase. Once the design is complete, we tender the project and enter into a contract with the most appropriate Contractor. This outlines our pre-contract responsibilities.
Post-contract, we act as the Employer’s Agent, executing the contract on behalf of the client. Our duties in this phase include budget management, stakeholder engagement, change control, and quality reviews. We work in close partnership with the Contractor to ensure the project is effectively managed in terms of time, quality, and cost.

I originally started my career as an apprentice site Quantity Surveyor with Tier 1 main contractor Laing O’Rourke, all while pursuing a Quantity Surveying degree. During this time, I gained hands-on experience delivering large, complex projects in aerospace, residential, large-scale commercial regenerations, and healthcare.
I shifted my focus to client-side project delivery, specialising in tendering, procurement, and contract administration. I was at the forefront of the UK build-to-rent sector, overseeing the delivery of one of the first institutionally funded schemes in North Acton.
In 2018, I founded Circle with a clear mission: to simplify the project delivery offering available to clients. I aimed to remove multifaceted teams and instill a detail-focused mindset across all team members. My focus is on continuous improvement and staying ahead of industry advancements, such as the Building Safety Act, while also investing in Circle’s development and positioning in the Carbon Management sector. I proudly received fellowship from RICS in 2022.
As the Managing Director, my role includes overseeing all Circle functions, managing people, business planning, conducting project reviews, and engaging with the supply chain. I also enjoy actively managing projects at key stages, including initial feasibility and procurement, alongside the expert teams within Circle. I take an active role in Life Cycle Carbon Assessments and Life Cycle Costing studies, as I have a deep passion for this emerging sector. My goal is to empower clients with the knowledge they need to make the right decisions for the future.

What is your favourite project?
I don’t have a clear favourite project, but I have recently enjoyed the conversion and repurposing of the Beech Street project in the City of London. I presented Circle’s work to the planning officers, highlighting the analysis, benefits, and comparison of design options. The One Maidenhead BtR project is where I call home, and as a result, I have experienced firsthand the positive impact that this large-scale regeneration can have on town centres. The brickwork looks great from the station platform each morning!
At home, my main hobby is keeping up with two babies and a cockapoo! I have a keen interest in motorsports, having spent over ten years racing superbikes at club level around the UK circuits, starting in the junior 125cc classes and progressing to 600cc before transitioning to off-road trials riding. More recently, I’ve traded big engines and high speeds for the occasional half marathon and coastal walks with my family and fluffy dog.

While studying Civil Engineering at University, I began my career as a placement student site engineer for a Tier 1 Contractor. Working on a police training facility in Yorkshire, which included the construction of indoor ballistic fire-ranges. This initial experience kick-started my journey in the construction industry. Throughout my career, I’ve had the opportunity to work on a variety of projects, each with its own intricate design details. These projects have included a 35-storey residential tower, commercial factories spanning over 120 acres, secondary schools, and petrol filling stations located within residential developments. My work has taken me to various locations across the UK, and I’ve also gained valuable overseas experience in Qatar.
In my role as Associate Director, I’m responsible for overseeing part of the project delivery function within Circle, including Construction Contracts from RIBA Stage 3 through to RIBA Stage 6. This involves managing of a diverse number of individuals through varied communication methods, to align Consultants/Contractors in obtaining the Client’s brief. I set key project deliverables, manage project risks, and address critical issues to facilitate the success of collaborative schemes. I particularly enjoy my role during significant project milestones, such as successfully concluding tendering negotiations between a contractor and client, as well as issuing ‘Practical Completion’ certificates at the conclusion of construction projects.
I began my role as a Project Manager in 2019 at Circle. During my time here, I achieved my Civil Engineering Chartership with the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE) in 2020. The invaluable support and technical knowledge shared by my colleagues during Continuing Professional Development (CPD) sessions played a crucial role in helping me attain my Chartership and advance into the role of Senior Project Manager.
My favourite project at Circle has been ‘The Fox.’ It was a significant opportunity for me to lead a construction project from cradle to grave. While the project presented its fair share of challenges, including a suspension due to the Covid-19 pandemic, it provided me with the chance to build relationships with both the client and contractor teams, which will last a lifetime. The project’s intricate design required me to utilise my on-site experience, which was instrumental in successfully delivering a traditional reinforced concrete frame building, hidden behind a locally listed historic pub and included facilities catered to both private and affordable housing residents. The project’s complexity and the teamwork involved made it a particularly rewarding experience.
I’m a keen sportsman, even though I might not excel in any particular sport, I enjoy the competitive element and camaraderie that sporting competition brings. In my free time, I like to use my holidays as an opportunity to explore countries all over the globe. The rest of my time is spent on my own construction project at my home in South London.

I firmly believe that carbon optioneering is essential for a successful project and strive to make clients aware of more carbon-friendly construction methods.

As a Quantity Surveyor, my responsibilities span financial, contractual administration, and project coordination, ensuring that construction projects are completed on time, within budget, and to the highest quality standards. I have a significant role in Life Cycle Carbon Assessments at Circle, overseeing the production of assessments throughout the company. This role is crucial in mitigating the environmental impact of building projects by considering carbon emissions at all stages, from material extraction to end-of-life. Additionally, I take pride in organising the annual Circle ski trip, managing budgets and delivering on expectations.
I joined Circle in May 2022 as an Assistant Quantity Surveyor and Project Manager. Over time, I have evolved into a more prominent Quantity Surveyor and Employers Agent role. I appreciate the flexibility offered by Circle, allowing me to explore and experience various roles within the company. I have gradually taken on more responsibilities in the two post-contract projects I am involved in and aim to continue my development with the company.
Mountbatten House holds a special place as my favourite project for various reasons. The uniqueness of the building itself, the challenge of renovating an existing frame while reducing its carbon footprint, and the rejuvenation of the fantastic garden terraces are all sources of excitement. I envy those who will have the opportunity to work there upon completion. Nonetheless, I hold great respect for my other projects as well.
I’m always eager to dive into various activities, whether it’s sports, dinners, festivals, or nights out. When I’m not dining out or cooking, you’ll find me cycling for outdoor fun or enjoying a few drinks with friends. I’m enthusiastic about using my holidays to explore new countries and cultures. However, there’s nothing wrong with a cozy night in with a takeaway curry to recharge.

What expertise and background do you bring to the table?
I started my career working on site with various trades, primarily of an MEP background before deciding to become a Quantity Surveyor. Since then, I’ve completed a degree apprenticeship at the University of Greenwich and become a member of the RICS. I’ve worked predominantly on new-build residential, co-living and PBSA projects but have also worked in various other sectors such as education, hotels and leisure, often in listed buildings within central London. Having managed projects through feasibility, procurement, completion and disputes, I have a keen eye for detail and enjoy adding value to projects early on.
Can you outline the responsibilities of your role?
Pre contract, I’m responsible for establishing the clients cost plan, managing and reporting on any movements, risks and opportunities. Key to this process is understanding the clients’ aspirations, project design constraints, construction methodologies and the supply chain. Through procurement I advise on tendering and procurement strategies to agree a route to contract that aligns with the clients’ key drivers and contractor appetite. Post contract, I oversee monthly valuations and cost reports, ensuring clients are aware of the financial status of the project and aware of any potential risks or key decisions required. As with pre-contract stages, engagement with all project stakeholders, including the contractor, is key in ensuring advice is timely and fully informed throughout the contract.
Describe your experiences and growth at Circle?
Since joining Circle, I’ve been introduced to a verity of projects from new build PBSA in Edinburgh to private school refurbishments in London, which will give me a broad range of experience. I’m excited to be part of the team and be more involved in projects in an Employers Agent capacity.
What has been your favourite project?
My favourite project so far has been Shore station, Edinburgh. The project is a mixed-use development consisting of 604 student beds, 18 homes, commercial space and amenity across seven blocks. The site is a conservation area with some listed blocks retained for the development which will require specialist conservation works and provide a range of experience.
What brings you joy outside of work?
Outside of work, I’m usually watching the football, spending time with the family or catching up with friends at the pub. I enjoy fitness and training so try to get to the gym as often as I can. When the English weather permits, I can be found making holes in a golf course while trying to perfect my swing! I also love getting away to see new places, from cities breaks to beach holidays, I’m always looking for another place to add to the list.

After completing my studies in Civil Engineering, I embarked on my career in the construction industry. I started by taking on various delivery roles with a Tier 1 Contractor, where I gained valuable experience across a range of sectors including Build-to-Rent and Prime Residential, Leisure, and Defence. During my time with the contractor, I had the opportunity to work as a Structural Design Engineer and even had the chance to work on projects in the Middle East, broadening my experience further.
The diverse projects I’ve been involved in have given me a well-rounded expertise in various aspects of built environment projects, including the technical, commercial, and delivery aspects.
In my role, I have the responsibility of overseeing several key departments within our company, including Project Management, Clerk of Works, and Quality Management. I actively participate in project oversight, offering support to our project teams to ensure that our projects are successful. This often involves attending design meetings and conducting regular site visits to monitor progress and quality.
I play a crucial role in the strategic planning of our projects and our efforts in securing new projects, ensuring our company continues to thrive in the industry.
I initially joined Circle during the company’s early days as a Project Manager. Over time, I worked towards becoming a Chartered Engineer and have since progressed to the position of Director. Throughout my time at the company, I’ve had the privilege of working on a diverse range of projects. These include residential schemes like Taberner House and Abbey Place, as well as commercial office fit-outs and the restoration of Listed Buildings.
I have enjoyed the experience of working on the Mountbatten House office refurbishment project, due to its unique construction and the sheer scale of the site. Working on listed buildings like Mountbatten House can be challenging, but it’s also incredibly rewarding. There’s a sense of gratification that comes from being involved in a project from its initial conception all the way through to its successful completion.
As a proud Welshman, it will come as no surprise that I am an avid rugby fan. While my playing days are behind me, my involvement with the sport is now limited to watching from the comfort of the sofa or chasing my son around at Rugby Tots. The rest of my free time is usually spent renovating houses and getting involved in anything construction-related projects. It’s a passion that extends beyond my work and keeps me busy and engaged outside of the office.

As an apprentice, I work with the Quantity Surveyor team across all projects to develop a comprehensive skillset in all aspects of the field.
Describe your experiences and growth?
I embarked on my professional journey with no prior experience but have since accumulated a diverse range of experiences across various projects. My time at Circle has exposed me to different situations on different projects, allowing me to collaborate with various consultants. I’m currently an apprentice at Circle as part of the degree apprenticeship scheme, which is equipping me with the necessary skills for the industry. This unique opportunity provides me with both in-depth knowledge through key projects and a broad understanding by involving me in various tasks.

What is your favourite project?
My favourite project is One Maidenhead, a build-to-rent development in Maidenhead comprising 429 apartments. I’ve been involved with this project from its inception, and it’s rewarding to witness the progress of each element as I visit the site for valuations. Since I’m learning on the job, I find this project particularly valuable for my development. I can analyse and learn specific elements of the work, which, when I’m in the office costing a new project, enables me to provide a more accurate cost.
I’m a passionate tennis player, having previously worked as a tennis coach. I enjoy engaging with the sport both as a player and an enthusiast. Running is another interest I’ve taken up, with half or full marathons on the horizon. I’m also a football lover, always keeping up with the weekend fixtures and results.

Following a degree from Oxford Brookes University in Real Estate Management, I started my career as a site-based Project Manager focusing on High End Residential Developments for a Private Developer. I then moved to a Consultancy and worked in both Public and Private Sectors across a range of project types including Commercial Offices, Supermarkets, Purpose Built Student Accommodation and Industrial. I have experience of the entire life cycle of a project.
As a Project Manager, my role begins early in the process. We collaborate closely with our clients to review the project brief, assess feasibility, and identify key risks and opportunities. From there, we appoint the most suitable consultant team for the project, which may include Designers, Planners, Solicitors, and others, and lead them through the design development phase. Once the design is complete, we tender the project and enter into a contract with the most appropriate Contractor. This outlines our pre-contract responsibilities.
Post-contract, we act as the Employer’s Agent, executing the contract on behalf of the client. Our duties in this phase include budget management, stakeholder engagement, change control, and quality reviews. We work in close partnership with the Contractor to ensure the project is effectively managed in terms of time, quality, and cost.
Describe your experiences and growth?
I started at Circle in November 2024 and I am currently delivering a mixture of super prime and BTR projects. I am being supported on the Chartership programme by Circle and growing as a professional surrounded by exceptional colleagues, Consultants and Contractors.
What is your favourite project?
Whilst all the projects are rewarding, I am particularly enjoying the Prime Residential project in Central London. I am passionate about exceptional design, best in class workmanship and high-quality materials which this project satisfies.
I enjoy running, surfing and rock ‘n’ roll music.

What is your favourite project?
My favourite project was Snow Hill, where I served as the lead QS from feasibility to a successful planning application in Q2 2023. The 48-storey BTR scheme in the centre of Birmingham brought complexities that I managed by working closely with a team of leading UK design consultants. I kept the client well-informed about the estimated project cost and advised the client on key value engineering opportunities. This landmark project expanded my expertise and experience in construction technology and buildability, involving the use of a bespoke unitised façade due to height restrictions.
My interests revolve around participating in and watching sports. I enjoy playing golf when the weather allows.

I originally started my career as an apprentice site Quantity Surveyor with Tier 1 main contractor Laing O’Rourke, all while pursuing a Quantity Surveying degree. During this time, I gained hands-on experience delivering large, complex projects in aerospace, residential, large-scale commercial regenerations, and healthcare.
I shifted my focus to client-side project delivery, specialising in tendering, procurement, and contract administration. I was at the forefront of the UK build-to-rent sector, overseeing the delivery of one of the first institutionally funded schemes in North Acton.
In 2018, I founded Circle with a clear mission: to simplify the project delivery offering available to clients. I aimed to remove multifaceted teams and instill a detail-focused mindset across all team members. My focus is on continuous improvement and staying ahead of industry advancements, such as the Building Safety Act, while also investing in Circle’s development and positioning in the Carbon Management sector. I proudly received fellowship from RICS in 2022.
As the Managing Director, my role includes overseeing all Circle functions, managing people, business planning, conducting project reviews, and engaging with the supply chain. I also enjoy actively managing projects at key stages, including initial feasibility and procurement, alongside the expert teams within Circle. I take an active role in Life Cycle Carbon Assessments and Life Cycle Costing studies, as I have a deep passion for this emerging sector. My goal is to empower clients with the knowledge they need to make the right decisions for the future.

What is your favourite project?
I don’t have a clear favourite project, but I have recently enjoyed the conversion and repurposing of the Beech Street project in the City of London. I presented Circle’s work to the planning officers, highlighting the analysis, benefits, and comparison of design options. The One Maidenhead BtR project is where I call home, and as a result, I have experienced firsthand the positive impact that this large-scale regeneration can have on town centres. The brickwork looks great from the station platform each morning!
At home, my main hobby is keeping up with two babies and a cockapoo! I have a keen interest in motorsports, having spent over ten years racing superbikes at club level around the UK circuits, starting in the junior 125cc classes and progressing to 600cc before transitioning to off-road trials riding. More recently, I’ve traded big engines and high speeds for the occasional half marathon and coastal walks with my family and fluffy dog.

While studying Civil Engineering at University, I began my career as a placement student site engineer for a Tier 1 Contractor. Working on a police training facility in Yorkshire, which included the construction of indoor ballistic fire-ranges. This initial experience kick-started my journey in the construction industry. Throughout my career, I’ve had the opportunity to work on a variety of projects, each with its own intricate design details. These projects have included a 35-storey residential tower, commercial factories spanning over 120 acres, secondary schools, and petrol filling stations located within residential developments. My work has taken me to various locations across the UK, and I’ve also gained valuable overseas experience in Qatar.
In my role as Associate Director, I’m responsible for overseeing part of the project delivery function within Circle, including Construction Contracts from RIBA Stage 3 through to RIBA Stage 6. This involves managing of a diverse number of individuals through varied communication methods, to align Consultants/Contractors in obtaining the Client’s brief. I set key project deliverables, manage project risks, and address critical issues to facilitate the success of collaborative schemes. I particularly enjoy my role during significant project milestones, such as successfully concluding tendering negotiations between a contractor and client, as well as issuing ‘Practical Completion’ certificates at the conclusion of construction projects.
I began my role as a Project Manager in 2019 at Circle. During my time here, I achieved my Civil Engineering Chartership with the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE) in 2020. The invaluable support and technical knowledge shared by my colleagues during Continuing Professional Development (CPD) sessions played a crucial role in helping me attain my Chartership and advance into the role of Senior Project Manager.
My favourite project at Circle has been ‘The Fox.’ It was a significant opportunity for me to lead a construction project from cradle to grave. While the project presented its fair share of challenges, including a suspension due to the Covid-19 pandemic, it provided me with the chance to build relationships with both the client and contractor teams, which will last a lifetime. The project’s intricate design required me to utilise my on-site experience, which was instrumental in successfully delivering a traditional reinforced concrete frame building, hidden behind a locally listed historic pub and included facilities catered to both private and affordable housing residents. The project’s complexity and the teamwork involved made it a particularly rewarding experience.
I’m a keen sportsman, even though I might not excel in any particular sport, I enjoy the competitive element and camaraderie that sporting competition brings. In my free time, I like to use my holidays as an opportunity to explore countries all over the globe. The rest of my time is spent on my own construction project at my home in South London.

I started my career after studying Construction Management and Surveying at university as a Graduate Project Manager with an organisation in the nuclear fusion industry. I loved the exposure to complex projects and managing multiple stakeholders that came with the role, and I moved on to consultancy work in 2022 to gain experience in the residential sector.
I have since worked for a wide variety of public and private clients on projects across the UK, with particular experience in the role of Employer’s Agent and Project Manager on affordable housing schemes for various London boroughs.
I work across RIBA Stages 2 to 6, ensuring that projects progress through the lifecycle within agreed parameters, while staying true to the client’s vision. My role involves developing coordinated programmes, managing stakeholders and overseeing contract administration, all of which are essential to maintaining momentum and alignment across the project team.
I’m also responsible for project team meetings, driving progress through key gateways and making sure that risks and issues are identified early and managed proactively. Communication plays a big part in what I do, whether it’s reporting to clients, liaising with contractors or coordinating with local authorities and consultants. Ultimately, I act as the main point of contact for the client throughout delivery, helping to turn a brief into a built outcome that meets their needs and expectations.
I joined Circle in September 2025. I’m excited to gain more experience in technically complex projects. I’m particularly keen to work on projects that reflect my personal values around sustainability, as I have always been conscious of the role the built environment plays in our impact on the planet.
I love going to the gym and try to go as often as possible. I also enjoy going to the cinema, learning German, going to the pub and exploring new places on foot. Last year, I hiked to Everest Base Camp, which was an incredible experience. Any other spare time usually goes into looking after my two dogs or working on home renovations.

I joined the Circle team in September 2025 and am looking forward to growing my expertise, sharing knowledge, and playing an active role in the success of our projects.
I resonate with Circle’s goal to be carbon conscious, as I am fascinated by the potential of green technologies and their adoption in buildings to improve occupier well-being. I’m passionate about making sure buildings work as well in practice as they do on paper, and my postgraduate research focused on bridging this gap. I also make it a priority to stay on top of changing regulations so I can provide clients with clear, proactive advice and deliver robust, resilient solutions.
I am an avid sportswoman, with tennis and cycling as my go-to activities. I’m always on the lookout for my next cycle tour, using it as a way to explore different countries.
