With the rollout of our new Technical Services, it’s the perfect time to re-introduce the team behind the work.
Our Technical team works closely with both clients and colleagues across SEC - helping develop specifications, get contracts back on track and support procurement activity across a wide range of projects.
In this Q&A, Darrel Trigg, Lucy Oliver and Paul Hann share a little about what a typical day looks like for them, what they enjoy most about their roles, and a few things you might not know about them.
Darrel Trigg, Head of Technical Services
"A day in the Technical team is incredibly varied. From supporting our procurement colleagues to helping clients get their tender documents ready, there is never a dull day in Technical."
Lucy Oliver, Senior Technical Partner
"Every day is different, which is something I really enjoy. We can spend time developing specifications and cost models, meeting with clients to talk through their procurement options, or working on tenders – reviewing clarifications, evaluating bids and supporting clients with training on how best to approach evaluation. We’ve also developed training materials for contractors based on our experience of tendering and previous roles to help enhance how they bid."
Paul Hann, Quantity Surveyor
"We don’t really have a typical day in Technical. One day we might be preparing specifications and cost models for our clients, another supporting framework exercises with our procurement colleagues, or reviewing industry data to provide insight and support future planning."
Darrel Trigg
"Helping people understand concepts they may not be used to dealing with. We often support clients who do not have a technical background to develop their specifications and cost models so they can successfully procure projects."
Lucy Oliver
"I really enjoy assisting clients with creating their contracts and advising them on how to get the best out of them."
Paul Hann
"Supporting our clients in understanding, planning and preparing the documentation needed to ensure the smooth procurement and delivery of their projects."
Darrel Trigg
"Although I emigrated to the UK from South Africa, I’m a passionate supporter of the England cricket team."
Lucy Oliver
"I swim in the sea every week all year round. I actually enjoy it more in the colder months – I love the feeling it gives me!"
Paul Hann
"Earlier in my career, I spent two years living and working in Ahmedabad, India."
