Following a successful stint working with several high-end developers in Chelsea, Kensington and Fulham, Ben made a successful transition into main contracting for high net worth private clients in Surrey. Inevitably, Ben was headhunted by a Central London based company to spearhead their move into developments in the increasingly popular areas of Islington and South East London.  The successful delivery of major development schemes kept Ben busy from 2014 until late 2017 when he joined up with long term friend and business associate Joe Garner to start New Place. Ben brings with him a wealth of construction knowledge, an eye for perfect delivery and a quest to constantly exceed client expectations. Duncan and Nick speak to Ben about; NewPlace Associates, time involved in closing deals, working closely with Croydon's Housing Association and his transition into the industry.

6 mins update on the platform launch and day one of capturing interested parties. Driving from London to Birmingham in 20 year old Porsche 911 Turbo 😍

Thought I would take ten minutes out of my morning to update you on what’s going on. It’s short and not designed to make you think too deeply. Tons of exciting content coming soon. Thanks for listening. DK

   #DEFENDERCAST - Episode 1 - What is #defendercast I have finally done it. Here is Episode 1 of #defendercast  This is extremely rough. My editing skills have proven to be woeful but to be honest I am really happy to have recorded and produced my very first podcast. I sincerely hope you enjoy it.  This us unedited! Hopefuly (if you get passed the first 5 mins of waffle) you will hear that I start to improve and grow into my new role as podcast host. You will notice some very strange videos and pictures on this youtube version of the podcast. Im really just playing around with what I can and cant do moving forward. I appreciate your patience with this.  All feedback required asap as I am constantly trying to improve. Unfortunately the first 5 mins is a little poor and whilst I fumble around but then it starts to flow better.  DK
