Careers at Buildspect

A Career Few People Know Exists

Most construction professionals spend their careers
building, supervising, certifying, managing projects or resolving problems on
site.

Few realise there is another pathway.

A pathway where decades of construction experience can be
applied to investigating building failures, solving complex problems, preparing
expert reports and helping parties resolve disputes.

That pathway is forensic building consulting.

At Buildspect, we help owners, builders, owners
corporations, lawyers, insurers and tribunals understand what has gone wrong,
why it has occurred and what needs to be done to rectify it.

We are not builders. We are investigators, problem solvers
and trusted advisors.

Why Forensic Building Consulting?

For many experienced construction professionals, there comes
a point where they want a new challenge.

They still enjoy the industry and value the knowledge they
have developed over many years, but they want to apply that experience in a
different way.

Forensic building consulting offers the opportunity to:

• Investigate real building failures and defects
• Apply practical building knowledge to complex issues
• Prepare reports that influence outcomes
• Work alongside lawyers, engineers, insurers and industry leaders
• Assist owners and property professionals resolve difficult issues
• Continue developing professionally long after leaving site-based construction roles

No two days are the same.

One day you may be investigating structural cracking, the
next preparing an expert witness report, conducting a rooftop inspection or
advising on a complex building dispute.

A Second Career, Not Just Another Job

Many of the best forensic consultants have already had successful careers in construction.

They bring practical experience, sound judgement and a genuine understanding of how buildings are designed, constructed and
maintained.

If that sounds like you, we’d like to have a conversation.
