My current role is Commercial Manager for the Yorkshire and East Midlands Region. I look after three contract partners and manage four Quantity Surveyors (QS’s). Managing a combined Contract value in the region of £95m+ per year. As part of my role, I collaborate with those contractors to negotiate and agree their price submissions for our network expansion projects. Working alongside the design and build teams I submit their prices to governance for approval. Then once approved draft and issue the contracts, manage any contractual disputes that may arise, produce monthly reports tracking project costs against set targets and once complete, agree the final accounts. Over the years, I have built great relationships with our partners, which has resulted in improved commercial performance on both sides, less disputes, reduced monthly payment variances and great working relationships where the contractors project volumes have increased year on year. With one partner even winning the partner of the year award.Highlights include – Managing the highest volume of Projects (Volume and Value wise) within the Northern region in 2025 including accelerating an additional 8 projects into year.
