Why We Are Different...
The company was set up in 2007 by Andy Hallam with the aim of providing a tailored construction consultancy service focused on delivering real value to its Clients.
Operating with the highest standards of professionalism and integrity our team makes provision of a first class service a priority. We do not have a ‘one solution fits all’ approach and instead make sure we understand our Clients business in order to fulfil their requirements and achieve their key project goals.
The consultancy operates from offices on London Road in Leicester, which is well placed to access Leicester railway station and has quick connections to the M1/M69/M6. We work with Clients across the East and West Midlands. Many of our Clients also ask us to carry out projects nationwide.
We have extensive experience of the construction and property industry, having worked within various sectors for both private and public Clients. We have acted for Clients at all stages of the built asset life cycle from site finding/acquisition to management of the tendering and construction phases through to operation.
Our team has a structured and logical approach to service provision which is carried out in a common sense manner. By providing comprehensive and well executed services we believe our Clients will succeed and come back to Hallam Read for assistance on their next project. We strongly believe that the success of any project lies in the strength of the relationships we create with our Clients.
Our Directors have in-depth and varied project experience, working in both Contracting and Client organisations. Andy previously spent 20 years working as a Commercial Director leading teams for well respected contracting organisations on multi million pound developments. Rhys was previously employed on the Client side for 22 years, working for multi disciplinary consultancies directing teams on complex projects.
We believe this mix of Contractor and Client side experience gives us a balanced and well rounded approach to the industry offering a real world approach.
Our values:
- always giving professional, unbiased and accurate advice in a timely manner
- employing quality staff with a common approach and mindset to the industry
- allocating a Director of the business to oversee each project who will also undertake a hands on role
- adopting best practice to the benefit of our Clients
- straight forward and easy to understand communications no “on trend” slogans and needless technical paperwork
