ABOUT US
COST MANAGEMENT
Proudly founded in 2019, we are an independent construction consultancy service which brings a wealth of experience across all sectors in the construction industry. At Turton Bond we take a modern approach to what is often cited as a traditional and outmoded profession. Delivering a best in class, tailored and industry leading consultancy model to our clients.
Our focus is to help our clients gain the maximum value out of their projects, while minimizing risk and providing a best in class work product that is both accessible and understandable. Having previously worked for several large-scale consultancy services over the past two decades, founding partners Will Turton & Chris Bond feel strongly that things can and should be done differently. With a strong focus on the embracing of technology, and the development of web-based apps accessible by our clients, we feel we can make a real difference.
HISTORY
Whilst the business was established as recently as 2019, we have been working within the construction industry for the entirety of our professional careers, and even have involvements dating back to our childhood. Both of our parents each had contracting firms based in the UK, which first exposed us to the diverse and exciting challenges of this industry.
Having worked for large scale, traditional consultancy firms throughout the entirety of our careers, we established Turton Bond with a view to changing the construction consultancy industry and modernizing our approach.

Expressing good communication skills and an ability to both understand and interrogate data, I have been fortunate enough to work across a multitude of sectors globally, from diamond mines in Australia to oil & gas refineries in Houston and delivering millions of square feet of corporate real estate in New York.
As a trainee Quantity Surveyor, I was lucky enough to work with the RSPB (Royal Society for the Protection of Birds) on a pro-bono project based in Sierra Leone. This taught me invaluable skills, not only technically (as in, measuring the volumetric weight of thousands of wooden window slats, or how bricks were produced by hand in the middle of a rainforest), but also on the softer skills of liaising and building relationships with individuals on the other side of the world.

Having graduated from Northumbria University in 2021, I have been in practice for three years working for a consultancy firm delivering projects for both global and national sized clients. I have worked on both new build and refurbishment projects within a plethora of sectors including: retail, education, healthcare and residential. Throughout this time I have been involved in pre and post contract phases and have gained extensive experience in areas such as measurement/billing, estimating, tendering and contract administration.
I was given the opportunity to work on a large-scale ward refurbishment within a fully operational hospital in the North-East of England. Working on behalf of the client, the National Health Service, I was the main point of contact between them and the main contractor. Due to an immense amount of design changes, I engaged within the design team meetings in order to identify areas where value engineering could be incorporated as well as dealing with any on site variations in a swift manner yet ensuring the clients financial interest is maintained.

I have over 6 years of experience in the construction industry as a Cost Manager, involved in projects pre and post contract in sectors such as education, commercial, office fit-out, leisure and local council that range from $1M to over $200M. During this time I have gained substantial experience in estimating, procurement, tendering, measurement, post contract and financial closeout, contract management and life cycle costing which allows me to advise the client thoroughly in various different cost management scenarios.
I was involved on a large scale special needs school development in West Lothian during my time in the UK. The requirement for the school was critical and time sensitive as many of the children that were scheduled to join the school were currently in mainstream education schools and struggling both physically and academically as their needs were not being met. Due to being mostly involved with commercial projects to this point in the UK, it was refreshing to see my involvement in this school really make a difference to a local community and young people not far from where I live.

I have a diverse background that spans through tech recruiting, facilities, and construction. I have approached all facets of issues through data collection, data manipulation, and data visualization. With over 5 years of experience in the construction industry, I have worked on a public infrastructure project where I quantified contractual requirements to provide actionable insights on submittals, RFIs, payments, change orders, and other project-related matters for leadership and project managers. My expertise in data analysis and visualization has enabled me to help the team identify trends, track progress, and make informed decisions.
I had the opportunity to start my construction career on a public project in San Francisco, the Biosolids Digester Facilities Project. This 8-year project aims to treat 80% of the city’s wastewater and has a significant green footprint by using more biogas to power the facility. The project also produces grade A fertilizer, reduces odors for the local community, and creates jobs for local residents. I joined the project after the preconstruction phase, and was able to experience the procurement process (2-3 years), establish a data management solution for the project, and assist in forecasting and cashflow management. Overall, it was a valuable and enriching experience, allowing me to develop a range of skills and contribute to a project that will have a positive impact on the community.

Weighing in at 40 lbs of pure hunk and ears, Gus is the best thing that happened to Kevin during the pandemic. Gus loves having his potbelly scratched, nibbling on his foot-long ears and sniffing for anything tasty in between his 18 hours of daily beauty sleep. What he lacks in energy and athleticism, he makes up for in good looks. The guy is irresistable. All passer-byers require a double-take when they get a glimpse of those 5 inch legs.
With an innate skill for tracking scents, Gus is trained to sniff out money on command. Nothing is more thrilling to Gus than sniffing out a roll of benjamins in exchange for a scoop of kibble. Second to sniffing, Gus loves chewing on the bullystick. A self-diagnosed addict, he enjoys chewing bullysticks and holds a record of going through a 20-count pack in 1 week.

I like my walks, but only to meet other dogs, I lie down and wait for them to come up to me so my pawrents have to stop walking.
