He then intends to work towards chartership with the RICS. As a trainee, Hallam currently acts as an assistant to other surveyors.

Hallam considers himself to have been fortunate to work on projects based across Kent, Sussex, London and Cambridge.

As a trainee surveyor, he assists with pre-contract aspects of projects including the preparation of tender documents and the analysis of tender returns in addition to producing cost plans. The core values that influence Ashley’s work are communication, determination, motivation and teamwork. He also makes an excellent cup of tea!

Outside of the office local non-league football is his passion. Being an avid supporter of Maidstone United F.C. for a number of years has allowed him to meet new and interesting people, as well as travel the country as far as Manchester following his team.

Ashley also enjoys going down the pub with friends for a few drinks and socialising at the weekend. He is looking forward to progressing his career at D.R.Nolans & Co., and being involved with many large and successful projects in the future.

As well as handling all the day-to-day office administrative duties, Hope ensures the office runs smoothly by answering telephone calls and emails so that the surveyors are free to focus on working for their clients.

She has years of administration, accounts and finance experience and has worked for large companies but more recently smaller family businesses, and has even run her own small cashmere business where she was involved with the end consumer as well as boutiques. She particularly loved the travel side of this business. She is a bit of a spreadsheet geek if the truth be known and likes to keep all aspects of the accounts department running smoothly.

Outside of work, she loves cooking, yoga, pilates, walks in the country and sunny holidays but most of all her family and 2 very naughty Westies.

James has a wealth of experience dealing with people and business, building and exceeding, through working with him.

Personally, James is a devoted father of 3 children. He is an avid Stoke City fan. If you want some unknown facts about James then he is a published author of 2 books and he was privileged to carry the Olympic Torch.

Be warned. He has a strange northern accent.
