Corbel Construction Appoints Kevin Burke as Group
Construction Manager
Christchurch-based
construction company Corbel Construction has appointed Kevin
Burke as Construction Manager across its three divisions:
Commercial Construction, Residential Building and Joinery
Manufacturing.
Kevin joins Corbel from Mainzeal
Construction where he was their Auckland Construction
Manager. At Mainzeal, Kevin project managed 8 Nugent,
a $30 million mixed use facility in Grafton for Neil
Property Group and Victory Christian Church, a $36
million refurbishment and underground development in
Freemans Bay. Prior to emigrating to New Zealand in 2008, he
held senior roles with companies such as Bovis Lend Lease
where he was responsible for Project Harlequin, a
£160 million project to build eight television studios for
BSkyB.
Kevin has a Higher National Diploma (HND) in
Building Engineering from the Royal School of Military
Engineering, Kent, and a Post Graduate Diploma in Project
Management from the Open University, Milton
Keynes.
Corbel Construction’s managing director
Craig Jones said, “Kevin has managed the construction of
many large and complex commercial construction projects over
some 20 years. We are fortunate to have been able to secure
his experience and expertise as we embark on expanding our
Commercial Construction business.”
Currently a
mid-sized construction company, Corbel is best-known for its
delivery of small to medium sized commercial projects, and
mid-to-upper end residential projects. More recently, it has
become involved in repair and rebuild work resulting from
the Canterbury earthquakes and is looking to capitalize on
this work to expand its business more generally.
“Looking ahead, Corbel plans to undertake larger
commercial construction projects which accounts for
Kevin’s appointment as we seek to expand our commercial
division and grow the business. Over the next three months,
we expect to announce further senior appointments to this
end,” Craig Jones said.
