Dan Whelan of Place interviews our Executive Chairman Paul Boileau and Associate Development Director Fran Taylor for our new Podcast on sharing our expertise in designing and delivering major development projects around the UK. What are the major challenges and how are they overcome?
In the first of our series on designing and delivering major projects, our Executive Chairman Paul Boileau, and Associate Development Director Fran Taylor, sat down with Place in July 2024.
In view of the pressing need to ensure the largest planned development projects across the UK come forward and deliver much needed new homes, our specialists share their views on how to bring these forward in the right way. Theirs and their teams expertise gained in driving the delivery of countless new settlements and urban extensions over the past three decades makes this well worth a listen!
At Brookbanks, we always strive to deliver The Brookbanks Difference; innovating throughout every project, maximising value, minimising costs and hitting key delivery timescales. We will always work hard so that you hit our clients financial, social and environmental targets. When we sat down with Place in July 2024, we explored how Brookbanks work with our clients on a daily basis to push development forward while maximising returns.
The Brookbanks Development Partner role offers an overarching outcome focused service, with a delegated responsibility to facilitate the delivery of a major development site. We can holistically control the planning, design and delivery of the physical and social infrastructure for these major projects. We do this time and time again around the UK, learning from each experience, retaining the benefit of all this knowledge for our next scheme.
Our outputs complement our clients’ and partners’ own expertise, be that securing planning consents, selling serviced land parcels or building/selling new homes. Together we make each other stronger and more successful.
