Derbyshire Building Control Partnership continues to grow
Derbyshire Building Control Partnership (DBCP) has strengthened its team across Derbyshire with a trio of brand-new appointments, as the demand for building control continues to rise in the region.
Two new fully qualified Building Control Surveyors have been welcomed to the team. This now makes DBCP the largest building control company in the East Midlands. The company has also welcomed Jade Sheppard to its technical support team.
Steve Mansfield and Andy Moran have joined DBCP as Building Control Surveyors. They bring 47 years of combined building control experience to their new roles.
In their roles, Steve and Andy will be working with builders, architects and property owners throughout the South Derbyshire region providing plan checks, site inspections and advice and support to clients and contractors for commercial and residential developments. They will also be on call for requests to assess dangerous structures.
Beginning his career as a trainee building control officer in 1987, Steve is now a full member of both industry bodies, the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) and the Institute for Leadership and Management (ILM).
He commented: “On a day-to-day basis, I’m going to be liaising with architects, builders and homeowners for site visits and plan assessments but ultimately, my role is about ensuring public safety.”
Outside work, Steve enjoys spending time with his family and going on walking holidays whenever possible.
Andy, who is a chartered member of CIOB, Level 6 LABC Building Standards Fire Safety Specialist and Fellow of the Chartered Association of Building Engineers (UK), joins Steve in covering the South Derbyshire area.
He commented: “I’m looking forward to DBCP’s growth plans and its progressive stance within the building control sector. I enjoy getting out and speaking with all types of people through site inspections and also enjoy working closely with architects and designers with a particular interest in the fire safety side of complex buildings, so I’m just really looking forward to getting started.”
Outside work, he enjoys getting out to walk his Welsh terrier, Ferry and regularly visits his holiday home in Barmouth, Wales.
It’s a complete career change for Jade, who joins the Technical Support team at DBCP. Previously working at a world-leading learning company checking exam papers, Jade has a strong eye for detail. She is also a member of the World Championship competitors – Trailblazer Allstars Cheerleading Academy, and represents England
She commented: “With the organisational and people skills I have developed with previous employers, the building control industry and the role at DBCP allows me to bring them all together and put them into practice each day.”
