Tell us about your career journey at NHBC

I started off as a temp in the training department in 2005, then got the opportunity to train as a building inspector in 2008. Following redundancy during the downturn in the market, I did a stint in claims as a resolution handler, then moved back to inspection two years later.

After four years as a building inspector, I started a secondment as a senior trainer. This was made permanent after one year following the birth of my daughter in 2008.

I joined the CQS team as a Senior Construction Quality Analyst. I was promoted to principal in 2022. Finally, I joined the Regional Director Group as the East Region RD in February this year.
