ASSA ABLOY Opening Solutions UK & Ireland has recognised the growth and contributions of Callum Starkey, a quantity surveyor within the commercial team, a company statement said.
After discovering an interest in engineering during his school years, it noted, Callum took on a civil engineering apprenticeship with a construction company. While working on-site, he said he found himself drawn to the field of quantity surveying, in which he decided to transfer universities and complete his degree in this area.
Callum joined the ASSA ABLOY family in July 2023, and now manages the commercial aspects of various doorset specification projects, ensuring they are all delivered on time and within budget. He works closely with contracts managers, participates in progress meetings, and monitors projects.
Callum said: “The freedom to work independently at ASSA ABLOY along with the support from experienced colleagues, has been great in building my confidence and abilities. It’s reassuring to know that the team believes in my capabilities, but also that there’s always someone to turn to for advice if needed.”
Brian Sofley, managing director at ASSA ABLOY Opening Solutions, added: “We recognise the importance of investing in the next generation of talent. Callum’s story is a shining example of how our environment and commitment to professional development are helping shape the future leaders of our industry.”
