Perspective Building Consultancy strengthens its presence in the east of Scotland with a new office led by Jason Taylor

Perspective Building Consultancy has expanded into Edinburgh with the opening of a new office, strengthening its presence across Scotland and increasing its capacity to deliver building surveying, project management and technical advisory services to clients across the construction and property sectors.

Established in 2019 by Group Managing Director Scott Spittal, the independent consultancy has experienced sustained growth, supporting occupiers, investors, property owners, developers and public sector organisations in managing, maintaining, refurbishing and improving their property assets.

The Edinburgh office will be led by Jason Taylor, Managing Director of Perspective Building Consultancy Edinburgh, supported by Daniel Manson, Director of Building Surveying, and Chloe Wilkie, Head of Business Development & Growth.

The expansion builds on the firm’s established relationships across the east of Scotland and reflects its ambition to grow its technical capability and provide clients with access to specialist building consultancy expertise across the country.

Jason Taylor brings more than 15 years’ experience across the construction and property sectors, advising investors, occupiers, developers and public sector organisations on building surveying, project delivery and asset management.

Daniel Manson is a Chartered Building Surveyor with experience across commercial, residential, education and public sector portfolios, delivering surveying, refurbishment, project management and technical advisory services.

Chloe Wilkie has worked across the construction and commercial property sectors, developing relationships with occupiers, property owners, investors and professional advisers to support business growth and client objectives.

Jason Taylor, Managing Director of Perspective Building Consultancy Edinburgh, said:

“Opening our Edinburgh office is an important step in Perspective’s continued growth across Scotland. We have built our business around providing practical, commercially focused advice that helps clients make informed decisions about their property assets.

“Having a dedicated presence in Edinburgh will allow us to strengthen existing relationships, develop new partnerships and support clients across a broad range of building surveying and construction-related projects.”

Scott Spittal, Group Managing Director, added:

“Since establishing Perspective in 2019, our focus has been on building a team that understands the technical and commercial challenges our clients face.

“Property owners and investors need clear advice on how best to maintain, improve and maximise the value of their assets. Our role is to help them identify risks, avoid unnecessary costs and make informed decisions, whether they are planning refurbishment works, assessing a potential acquisition or managing a property portfolio.

“The Edinburgh expansion allows us to build on that approach, investing in our people and technical expertise while extending the support we provide to clients across Scotland.”

From its Edinburgh office, Perspective will provide a range of building consultancy services, including:

  • Chartered building surveying

  • Dilapidations advice
  • Planned preventative maintenance
  • Project management and contract administration
  • Employer’s agent services
  • Development monitoring

The services will support clients throughout the property lifecycle, from acquisition and condition assessment to maintenance planning, refurbishment and project delivery.

The Edinburgh office marks the latest stage in Perspective Building Consultancy’s development as it continues to expand its team, strengthen client relationships and deliver specialist advice across Scotland’s construction and property markets.
