Fiona Hull

DIRECTOR

For the record… 25 years working for some of the biggest and best names in the construction industry and a successful and respected Quantity Surveying consultancy tells its own story. Educated at Loughborough University, Fiona graduated with a first class honours degree in Commercial Management & Quantity Surveying. As an MRICS Surveyor and an Assessor for the RICS Fiona loves nothing more than educating others and often lectures on Quantity Surveying at several local Universities.


Responsible for Business Development, Fiona loves meeting new clients but still has involvement with the Dispute Resolution side of our business and the day to day running of several of our luxury homes schemes. Fiona is also an RICS accredited Expert Witness. Fiona is married to Joe and has two teenage sons. All avid football fans (the blue half of the City) even the family dog is named after the little magician himself – Silva!

Stephen Hooker

DIRECTOR

Stephen became an equal shareholder in Construction Q in 2018 and has been responsible for a significant period of growth in turnover over the last 18 months. As an experienced Commercial Director with over 30 years of experience within the built environment, Steve has an ability to deliver exceptional results in several challenging business roles and sectors.


Skilled in Negotiation, Dispute Resolution, Bid Management, Value Engineering, Cost Management, Tender Planning and Effective Win Strategies. Steve is keen that we all work to his ethos - providing clients with cost effective solutions to their requirements, and ensuring we add value to their existing provisions, both professionally and financially, at all times.


Away from the office Steve is a keen Liverpool fan. The CQ office certainly has lively debates on Monday mornings, with both Directors following the opposing top 2 teams in English Football!

Tracey Hertzog

SENIOR QS

Tracey has almost 30 years’ experience in the Construction Industry and has worked for Tier 1 Main Contractors, before joining the CQ Team. Often taking on a site-based role on our larger Commercial Schemes, Tracey is extremely skilled in managing teams, commercial reporting, and risk profiling.


Tracey is a highly self-motivated, committed individual, with a positive outlook who enjoys dealing with complex situations and creating innovative solutions.
