Honorary Secretary
For the first eight years of employment I was in private practice with three small practices. As the practices were small, I gained a wide and varied experience quickly which has stood me in good stead through my career.
For the first eight years of employment I was in private practice with three small practices. As the practices were small, I gained a wide and varied experience quickly which has stood me in good stead through my career. During those years I was involved in projects from an attic conversion to a new hospital as well as bars, restaurants, factory units, health clubs.
In 1995, I joined a national housebuilding company and since then I have remained within the housebuilding industry and I am currently with Persimmon Homes West Scotland.
Having spent the majority of my career in the housebuilding industry it follows that my speciality will be housing of all descriptions, from multi storey flats to individual dwellings. Primarily I am involved in timber frame construction but traditional build poses no problem.
I do not consider the projects I have worked on are exceptionally noteworthy with the exception of one project which is the first six storey timber kit housing development in Scotland. I consider my main achievements to be ensuring the projects I work on are from an architectural prospective well managed.
I thoroughly enjoy working in the building industry. It has a great variety of characters and no two projects present the same problems – thus it is essential that I keep fully abreast of changes to legislation, new products and construction techniques.
I never tire of promoting CIAT at any opportunity and I represent CIAT on a number of committees. CIAT belongs to it’s members and it is only with self promotion by the members that it will continue to flourish in the future. We should all be proud of how much CIAT has achieved in such a short time.
