How do you help clients?
Having joined Gateley Smithers Purslow as a postgraduate in 2008, I have been given the opportunity to develop my industry experience throughout the UK across a range of sectors and projects. I have built my knowledge on the intricacies and nuances specific to different areas of work, and I ensure this is shared with clients to their benefit.
Having advised on a diverse range of interesting and complex projects during my career to date, I now regularly support clients on more than “the standard” project, often advising them on particularly complex reinstatement or remediation projects, providing suitable value engineering advice to allow their projects to progress and ensuring that the complexities don’t lead to project delays or loss in value.
As well as recognising the importance of delivering the best possible outcomes to our clients, I will always prioritise providing clear and regular communication, and a first-class service each and every time.
