Jack Robinson
Jack joins Vanguard after an extensive career in construction project management at A D Baker in the UK, experienced in the high-end retail sector taking projects from pre-construction to turnover. He effectively coordinates trades, builds partnerships, and works collaboratively with clients, architects, engineers, suppliers, and local officials to ensure the timely and budget friendly completion of his jobs. On Pre-Construction, Jack develops preliminary budgets with allowances and follows up with consultants and subcontractors confirming scope and specifications, finalizing the project’s total costs within expectations. He demonstrates the ability to tackle challenging, high-pressured tasks while prioritizing the project’s success and client satisfaction. Outside of work, Jack enjoys playing rugby.
“I’ve found playing Rugby to have carry over into my career. Building a project is all about teamwork, processes, and strategic thinking. I can analyze the rugby field just as I can analyze a project’s scope to assess risk. Working effectively with my team is key to success—whether combining with teammates to score or estimating and building a new project.”
