Worked with Gary on several successful projects at Tolent & cannot speak highly enough of him as an outstanding Site Manager. Never have I met anybody in the industry with the drive, determination & commitment to succeed in his career & life in general. His attitude & willingness to learn & improve is also key to his success, in which I would always gladly help & advise Gary when he wanted to learn & develop skills that were above his role, for example: labour, plant & material forecasts; updating/tracking construction programme; MOM. His infectious, positive & like-able character is also a huge asset & a contribution to his success of management on site. If he is ever unsure on anything across any field for example, a specialist groundworks subcontractor, he will cleverly utilise his interpersonal communication skills to pro-actively plan & manage activities. He always managed to have a brilliant working relationship with contractors (with the correct balance which is key) & they would often ‘jump through hoops’ for Gary - an advantage to any company & a great negotiation tool towards problem solving or any commercial disputes. Vastly knowledgeable & experienced in his area of expertise of construction/building projects, in particular all internal aspects, especially joinery from his background. In my opinion, Site Managers from a joinery trade background are always superior as they are involved in almost all sequences of a project cycle & Gary’s knowledge definitely confirms this. Overall, a brilliantly rounded SM, who will have a very successful career, I have no doubt! Hopefully we will work together again sometime & somewhere in the future.

Gary is a hard working lad who has pride with all the jobs he under takes. Always delivers on time and to spec.
