We are proud to announce that we have strengthened our residential team with the appointment of Chris Tutin as a technical director in Nottingham.
Chartered quantity surveyor, Chris, joins from Diafora and brings more than 20 years of experience spanning the construction sector. This includes ten years specialising in the affordable housing sector both as a contractor, as well as working in-house for housebuilders and developers on residential schemes such as joint ventures with local authorities.
In his role at Gateley RJA, Chris will be responsible for growing and developing the residential team and its offering in Nottingham, as the consultancy continues to increase its number of affordable and social housing sector projects across the region.
Chris is also a RICS Assessment of Professional Competence (APC) counsellor and East Midlands board member, as well as a Chartered Institute of Building mentor. He will contribute to Gateley RJA’s internal APC programme to support team members with the chartership process.
On his appointment, Chris said: “I’ve known and worked with Gateley RJA for many years through previous schemes where they were appointed as the employer’s agent, so I know the directors well and our values and work ethic are very much aligned. Gateley RJA has seen tremendous success over the past few years, and I was ready for a new challenge, so joining the consultancy in a new technical director role was the perfect opportunity.”
Hardeep Kooner, director of residential at Gateley RJA, commented: “We have secured several significant instruction wins over the past few years which has seen us expand our residential team. In line with our growth strategy, it was the right time to bring in a senior appointment to help with developing our people and offering in Nottingham to continue this trajectory. Chris has worked both in-house as well as a contractor and so has an enhanced understanding of what our clients need to enable us to work seamlessly as an extension of their team. I’m really looking forward to seeing how he settles in at what is a really exciting time for us.”
