Kerry Grandfield joins Amaro as Quantity Surveyor

Back in November 2023 we took on our very first QS, Nick Egan. Now, just 5 months later he’s joined by Kerry Grandfield!

The last few years have seen incredible growth here at Amaro. And, as the number, size and complexity of our projects evolves, so must our commercial team.

Kerry and Nick are Amaro’s financial guardians, responsible for constantly monitoring our projects…

– Managing the budget and contractual relationships
– Controlling costs, challenging where required
– Ensuring all legislative requirements are met
– Advising on tendering and procurement
– Suggesting ways to overcome challenges efficiently

… and so much more, keeping projects running smoothly (and cost effectively) for Amaro, our clients, and the tax payer.

Welcome on board, Kerry. We’re lucky to have you!

The scene is illuminated by ambient lighting and shows railway tracks stretching into the distance, leading towards a well-lit station. The worker, equipped with a helmet and a bag, appears to be engaged in track inspection or maintenance duties.
