Mark Collinge

Rock’s new senior surveyor

Rock’s current phase of carefully planned growth has only underscored how critical it is to deliver fully on contracts. It was for this reason that in November 2011 we recruited Mark Collinge as senior surveyor. Until then, one of Rock’s longest standing professionals, Chris Brereton, had taken sole responsibility for quantity surveying. In line with Rock’s increasingly diverse portfolio, Mark has established our commercial department and recruited five full-time surveyors from the market. Before joining us he was a senior surveyor at Lakesmere, the national building envelope specialist involved on projects as large as Heathrow Terminal 2.

“Rock is gearing up for around £30m turnover this year in contract roofing and commercial business,” Mark revealed, “so in the last few months I have appointed a team who will focus on our expanding commercial contracts. I am based both in London and Birmingham and favour a very hands-on approach to my work. With our new team of quantity surveyors Rock is better equipped to keep a close eye on project finances and contractual relationships while continuing to provide clients with genuine value for money.”
