Senior Director, CBRE

“I have been with Unova for 5 months moved from a a much larger organization. The move did not only change the type of work I do, but also the way I do it, as well as the timescales. Being in a large firm, with big multi million projects to work on, the process of design all the way to Construction can be slow, and takes time to actually see the finished buildings. The work can sometimes tends get repetitive.

Working at Unova, the scale of the projects we usually work on are smaller and swifter, meaning that you end up working in a more dynamic world. This is something that has been very beneficial for me, as I tend to finish one and get to move onto the next. Additionally, I have the opportunity of getting to know our clients from the first week and start interacting and understanding their needs, of being part of the conversation on how we can make their buildings work more efficiently and provide advice on new or upcoming regulations that might affect their CAPEX budget etc. This is something that easily could have taken me a couple of extra years to experience in a larger firm.
Stuart was very helpful from the beginning of the process, he really understood what Unova did, was very clear at explaining their business model, their policies and gave me an insight of all team members. This move is one that has been very beneficial for my career and to my personal life.”
