Trusted Recommendations From Fellow Professionals
Stephen Alderdice
Architect
February 11, 2013, Stephen worked with Andrew on the same team,
Andrew was a key team member in the delivery of the Cardinal Wiseman Catholic School in Ealing, where we worked together with JM Architects on behalf of Balfour Beatty. His responsibilities included the co-ordination of production information packages. Latterly Andrew performed a closer contractor-facing role as the project moved into the remodelling of the retained estate. He has discharged his role with skill as a Senior Technical member of staff, amidst a demanding procurement context.
Michael Mckenzie
Architect
August 21, 2011, Michael worked with Andrew on the same team
I have known Andrew for 5 years working with him on numerous projects both in Glasgow and London. I have found him to be a hard working person, full of energy to get the job done. A focused individual who can drive solutions and offer assistance and insight to others. He can quickly get to grips with difficult issues and start making a difference straightway.
His ability to problem solve technical issues comes easy as does his manner with other co workers and team members form other companies.
I would recommend Andrew to any business who needed a strong deliverer and dependable worker. On a social level he has never been shy in getting involved with others, who I feel he makes at ease.
