I became Regional Managing Director of Linford Building (Midlands) in 2007 - quite a progression for someone who joined the Group as an Apprentice Bricklayer in 1970.

My experience covers all forms of traditional construction in both the public and private sectors. I have continually used the skills I learnt from Linford's on-site trainee schemes to enhance my roles within the Contracts department and ensure the smooth control and completion of all projects undertaken by the Operations Unit.

My Qualifications are:

• Brickwork City & Guilds
• Construction Technician Parts 1 and 2
• L.I.O.B.
• A.C.I.O.B.

Projects I have worked on:

• Lichfield University
• Oxford Playhouse
• Bishopsgate Street, Birmingham
• Battenhall Road, Worcester
• Granville Street, Birmingham
• Molineux Hotel, Wolverhampton
