Welcome Phil…

Phil has joined Burmor to aid expansion West of our office in Peterborough. Phil lives in the East Midlands, and with his wealth of affordable housing experience his appointment will provide us a new area of operation to our existing housing association clients.

“I’ve worked in affordable housing for almost 20 years. I started as a QS on a day release degree course and have since worked as Development Manager, PQS and Estimator.  I enjoy looking at early cost appraisals and evaluating site constraints and abnormal items.  I’m also quite a big Excel geek. 

In my spare time I recently managed a self-build project of two houses, whilst living in a mobile home with two children and a very tolerant wife.  The second house was for my parents-in-law (which might not be to everyone’s tastes), but to counter that, there’s also a pub at the end of my drive which provides some sanctuary.  I’m also the Treasurer for a charity beer festival which I helped create and has now donated over £50k to various local charities and good causes.  I’m an aspiring golfer and love the challenge of improving as well as the social aspect”
