Scott Harkness, head of commercial, Carter Jonas said: 
“This is an exciting time for our ABC team and it’s a pleasure to announce Richard’s appointment alongside so many new joiners. With technology driving innovation across our industry the role of the Building Consultancy team is changing dramatically. We already offer a wide range of expertise covering building surveying, architecture, project management and cost consultancy and, moving forward, Richard is tasked with growing our team across the UK to ensure it is flexible and able to adapt to the evolving requirements of our growing client base.

“Richard takes up the mantle from Colin Buggey who has expertly established, led and grown the team for over 20 years. Colin remains working with Carter Jonas on a consultancy basis. Whilst he’s a tough act to follow, we feel confident we have the right people in place to ensure the future success of our clients and the team.”

Formerly a partner with Bidwells, he has extensive experience in building surveying and significant knowledge of both the Cambridgeshire and national markets. Fox-Pope joins from Cushman and Wakefield as an associate building surveyor in London. She has a wide range of experience including dilapidations, project work, technical due diligence, and party wall matters, across a range of commercial properties.

Richard Love, Partner, added:  
“With a record number of projects currently under management it is extremely positive to be growing the team with significant hires in building surveying and project management. Over the past 12 months we have built the team, as well as the breadth of our capabilities, and by welcoming Jason, Keith, Chris and Daisy we now stand at 30 people strong across the UK. Moving forward we will leverage their collective expertise and that of the existing team for the benefit of new and existing clients.”
