092. From Corporate Surveyor to Surveying Business Owner

The Surveyor Hub Podcast

How to transition from being a corporate surveyor to being a surveying business owner.

This is what your host chartered surveyor, industry coach and mentor Marion Ellis and Paul Hawkins discuss at length in today's episode.

Paul is the Co-Director of a general surveying practice - called North and Hawkins Building Consultancy - over in Norfolk and a member of the Love Surveying Business Club which they also discuss in the podcast.

Marion and Paul cover various topics including:

• Quinquennial inspections on residential properties around Norwich Cathedral.
• The importance of local knowledge and how to balance your skills in a general surveying practice
• Moving from being a corporate surveyor to being a surveying business owner
• Finding freedom working for yourself
• Confidence, networking and building your brand
• And also how to take a holiday - which we know some small business owners struggle with.

We hope you enjoy this conversation!
