Career Profiles

Richard Johns, BSc Hons MBA DIC CEng MICE Partner |
I joined Gardiner & Theobald in 1997, after an early career working on heavy civil engineering projects and then working as a project manager on large PFI schemes.
I started work as a project manager managing the design and town planning process for Swiss Re on a new headquarters building – 30 St Mary Axe.
During that time Gardiner & Theobald supported me through a part time MBA course at Imperial College, where I was able to broaden my knowledge in areas such as finance, accounting, economics and marketing – much of which I have been able to use with Gardiner & Theobald and in my dealings with clients.
Over the last four years I have project managed the fit-out of a new quarters building for international professional services firms in Canary Wharf and in the City and two new University buildings for Imperial College.
I am currently running a £100m mixed use scheme in Kings Cross
and working for two firms of solicitors on new headquarters accommodation.
