James Griffin

Construction, Development & Senior Appointments · Caribbean

James runs connected desks across the Caribbean: construction and development talent for major projects, senior and board-level search, and roles with the consultancies that deliver them. He partners with Emma Westwood on the construction and property desk. He works alongside the developers and contractors who deliver them.

In James's words
“On a Caribbean project, the right people are everything, from the QS on site to the director in the boardroom. I place both.”
