New Equity Members Update

We are pleased to announce Christopher Marien and Jonathan Harris have become Equity Members at calfordseaden.

Chris is a Chartered Mechanical Engineer who joined calfordseaden as a graduate over 14 years ago. Chris has been leading the MEP engineering in London, while supporting the sustainability, lifts and BIM groups within calfordseaden. . In 2019, Chris completed a PhD with the University of Cambridge, conducting research into the Energy Performance Gap in Low Energy Housing. Chris has published industry articles as well as speaking at number of conferences on a range of topics including low carbon technologies and the energy performance gap.

“From starting as a graduate 14 years ago, I extremely proud to now become an equity member at calfordseaden. My progression is just one example of the support and investment in people throughout the company.

I believe that the multi-disciplinary environment created provides great opportunities for people to excel and it has been this collaboration that has supported our growth into wider services and sectors. I am excited to continue this focus on development, collaboration, and excellence to drive towards our future successes as a business.”

Jonathan joined calfordseaden in 2002 after graduating from university. After a three-year stint away from the practice within which he managed the construction of a hospice in Romania he returned to calfordseaden in 2007. Jonathan has developed a strong reputation as an employer’s agent, project manager and JV supervisor. In 2019 Jonathan took on our London employer’s agent team bringing rapid growth in turnover, services offered and sector experience.

“I have seen the business steadily grow from a small Kent based SME, to an organisation which has six offices with over 350 employees. It goes without saying that I think calfordseaden is one of the best privately owned consultants in the industry.

It’s a privilege to demonstrate this view and show my commitment to calfordseaden’s continued success by investing into the business. I am thoroughly looking forward to an exciting future with my fellow partners and colleagues as the business goes from strength to strength.”

We wish Chris and Jonathan all the best in their new positions and look forward to what they will both bring to our Equity Member team.
