Employer’s agent

Estates Managers are often in high demand, working with contractors, meeting with surgery or hospital managers and performing their day-to-day duties. For this reason, many Estates Managers choose to hire an Employer’s Agent to act on their behalf in construction projects.

All our Employer’s Agents have a construction-related qualification and a strong background within the industry. We take the lead on a project, performing a similar role to a contract administrator, but within a design and build contract. Whether involved in the procurement stage or later in the process, our Employer’s Agent experts will administer the construction standard contracts.

At Pennington Choices, our Employer’s Agent experts:

• Represent the employer accordingly and in line with their preferred methods;
• Coordinate all activities within the project;
• Supervise the execution of the works in compliance with the contract;
• Conduct all correspondence, keep accounts and/or inspect the same, including regular reports in which the progress of the works is monitored;
• Indicate the points in time at which the contractor is entitled to receive payment of the contract sum in whole or in part and to inspect and/or prepare the payment documents relating to the works; and
• Review detail drawings and documents prepared for the purpose of the execution of the works.

Our Employer’s Agents are strong communicators, acting as a vital bridge between the client, the contractors and designers. To take a look at some of our previous work, follow this link here.
