Mr Greg Phillippo, Senior Quantity Surveyor, Rider Levett Bucknall, G4C
Greg has been a QS since graduating 7 ago and is currently enjoying working for Rider Levett Bucknall, but his doctor says this feeling will go away once the tablets start to work.... In life he believes that you have to take your opportunities (especially to enjoy yourself) and be proud of who you are.
Greg joined G4C because he wants to do something positive in the industry and is concerned about the perception of the industry and the consequent effect this has on potential recruits. He wants to ensure that construction is an attractive career, and that the public knows this! He also believes that the newer generation can help change the way this industry is run and wants to be part of this change!
