I worked with Adam for 2 years at Morgan Sindall predominantly on the Littleport School project where he was a Project QS. Responsible for numerous large value subcontract packages including Earthworks, Groundworks, Steelwork, Carpentry and Finishing trades, Adam priced these capably through the 2-stage process and successfully procured, managed and agreed accounts through the lifespan of the project demonstrating strong negotiation, forecasting and reporting skills. Adam was able to communicate and build relationships with the supply chain and was a valued member of the Commercial team.

Adam is a very hardworking and conscientious QS, who went about his work in a very methodical thorough manner. He was an excellent member of the team and I would highly recommend him!
