Daisy

Company Dog

‘Dopey’ Daisy is our designated company greeter – always delighted to meet new people with an enthusiastic wag of her tail. She also helps at mealtimes by encouraging a sharing policy and clearing leftovers with glee.

FUN FACT: Daisy is a beautiful Cocker Spaniel with all the beautiful characteristics of a Cocker Spaniel!

Rupert Robinson

Managing Director (amongst other things)

Rupert describes his roles at Environments for Business as many and varied, including Managing Director and Tea Boy – although his family reportedly think his job is mostly “drinking coffee and playing pool”.

When he’s not providing eye-candy for the office, Rupert’s day revolves around making sure our team are happy and working well – being a decision maker, sounding board and agony-aunt.

FUN FACT: Rupert’s rendition of Dolly Parton’s ‘9 to 5’ is akin to a Vogon reading poetry!

Rosie Brown

Head of Sales and Marketing

Marketeer, Rosie started in the industry within the mechanical and electrical world specifying ventilation systems, then delving into visualisation when she started with Environments for Business, thus combining her technical knowledge with the fun pretty side of our work. Super passionate about her role (both the artistic stuff and the tech behind how the building works) she loves meeting people and creating places that make their work lives better.

FUN FACT: Rosie has a degree in photography and is an HSE-qualified scuba diver but, nowadays, her life revolves around her beautiful little girl.

Christian Hodges

Head of Design

As our Head of Design, Christian has a great understanding of the importance of workplace design – how it shapes an organisation’s culture and how it can positively impact employee engagement and wellbeing.

Christian takes huge pride in his work and enjoys collaborating with a range of clients in a variety of different sectors. He’s a logical thinker, who loves to integrate technology into design as well as keeping a close eye on the raft of rules and regs that even the most creative of projects need to adhere to.

FUN FACT: Christian is a computer and tech nerd, a Manchester United fan and a cat lover – he currently has three of them.

She’s been instrumental in helping us to grow, continually improving our financial processes and making a big impact on our operations. She enjoys seeing the results of her work and says that work is her happy place – we’re like one big happy family.

FUN FACT: Rebecca’s passion for rugby has taken her all over the world – from watching “the mighty Chiefs” at Sandy Park to following England and the Lions.

Marc Jenkins

Head of Estimating

Marc tells us he’s been “serving time” with us for more than five years now, first as an estimator and now (with good behaviour) as our Head of Estimating. Providing accurate costing and ensuring projects are achieved on budget based on his precise guess work and wind direction, is the most rewarding part of the job.

Even after all this time, Marc is still amazed by the transformation of properties – he enjoys seeing the ‘before and after’ pictures, showing off our workmanship and design flair.

FUN FACT: When he’s not chained to his desk, you’ll find Marc at the ping pong table, maintaining the high levels of fitness and sharpness required to perform in a small local table tennis league.

Chris Spicer

Commercial Lead

Known for his likeable personality and good sense of humour (it says here), Chris has built his commercial and construction knowledge over several years in the industry. He strives to build up mutual relationships with both clients and subcontractors and to look after our financial interests using his trademark charm to smooth over any differences of opinion.

FUN FACT: Chris claims that one of his favourite parts of his job is Excel!

Nathan Davis

Detail-focused Nathan joined our team in 2018. The part of his job he enjoys the most is bringing clients’ ideas to life by creating 3D models and renders. At the time of writing, he’s studying to earn a degree in building services design with a view to becoming a fully qualified engineer.

FUN FACT: Outside work, Nathan enjoys reading and listening to music, plenty of which irritates whoever is in the office.

Magda moved to the UK straight after completing a Master’s in Interior Design at the Academy of Fine Arts in Gdansk.

She enjoys challenging projects where she needs to learn new things in order to come up with a successful design.

FUN FACT: When she’s not at work, her favourite thing to do is walk her dog on the beach.

Ellie Wood

Project Coordinator

Our Project Coordinator, Ellie has a background in construction and utilities administration. She loves planning and organising but perhaps her favourite part of the job is anything that requires her to create a spreadsheet. Long may she excel!

FUN FACT: Ellie lists her interests as gaming, painting and drawing and mentions that she has lots of cats.

Conan Gregory

Small Works Manager

Conan manages our small works team, who capably turn their hand to anything from fitting a fire door to plumbing in a tea point. With an interest (some would say unhealthy) in building things – anything from Lego to internal combustion engines – he’s the perfect man for the job. Conan says that the thing he most enjoys about his job is ‘getting it done right’ which is great news for our customers.

FUN FACT: Conan describes himself as a “relatively uninteresting character” which we think is fascinating.
