Chris Chambers

A very experienced main board Director, possessing expansive construction knowledge, Chris’ experience, natural leadership skills and operational knowledge and structure brings great depth to Hansby. His fluency in strategy development and implementation has been invaluable to the growth of the business. The operational relationship between Chris and the senior team also provides great depth for everyone to draw on and learn from moving forward.

Testimonials

“

Hansby were recommended to me when I was in the midst of an untenable position on a project that was no longer in my control. They immediately understood my predicament, swiftly engaged and guided me through the legal and practical journey that enabled me to regain total control of my project. It is rare in this industry, or indeed any industry in my experience, to come across such an experienced and skilled team of people that also operate with such a high level of integrity, transparency and commitment, taking full ownership of each assignment. I highly recommend them.

It’s was a pleasure to be involved in their recent project, and I’ve been impressed with the whole process and delivery of the project. I look forward to getting involved in larger projects in the near future.

We wanted to drive our business forward during a growth phase, and the team at Hansby wasted no time in understanding what our business needed to improve. They have been an integral part of our recent success and we have been extremely impressed with their knowledge, ability and professionalism. We would highly recommend them to anyone who is involved in a construction or development business.

We decided to invest our money as the interest rate is very appealing and such a short turn around. The team kept us fully informed with the progress of the projects and we were reassured about the status of our investment. We could not recommend them highly enough.
