Our Team

CEO

Son of Mark, and the young gun of the industry, Daniel is the driving force behind the company’s growth and development. His official title is CEO, but prefers to be called a Good Bugger. He has a passion for coffee and gets really annoyed at coffee houses that don’t know the difference between a Long black and a Americano!

Health & Safety Manager

Don’t be worried if you can’t understand Billy, not many of us can with his thick Liverpool (Scouse) accent. After starting with the company as a ceiling installer, Billy moved to his preferable and experienced role as H and S manager, bringing with him higher standards and experience from the english sector.

Branch Manager

Another Soccer (football) nut from Manchester, Heath is well known and very well respected within the industry as a positive go getter who always leads from the front. Heath has over 30 years of experience in operations and construction management, and has taken his branch to a world class level of customer service. We think all this energy must come from the amount of coffee he drinks in a day, over 10 cups!

Lorraine brings a woman’s touch to the heavily male office. Her friendly personality and polite manner are what you will receive when speaking with her. But don’t be fooled! She keeps her own by impressing everyone with the Harley Davidson she rides!

Quantity Surveyor

Starting as an Estimator, Cam has worked his way up to Quantity surveyor due to his attention to detail, sharp wit, and willingness to get things right. He is the office joker and has made up a nickname for everyone within the organisation! He is a sport fanatic, and is a die hard fan of the Springboks, much to the amusement of the rest of us.

Long Term Employee

Evan started with us when he was just 17, and the now CEO Daniel was hardly walking. Special mention must go to this rocker who has put in many years worth of service to the good buggers. Its employees like Evan which gives our company a great name, without them we would be nothing.
