As we begin our next chapter, we welcome Claire Kennedy into her new role as Equity Partner of Playle & Partners LLP!
Looking back at Claire’s career to date – we asked, what was the first project she worked on? And what is Claire best known for? Read on to find out…
First project worked on
Richard Atkins Learning Centre for London Borough of Lambeth. The project provided new facilities for pupils and parents at a Grade II listed Victorian primary school in Brixton.
Funniest project moment
Sitting in a project meeting and realising the site manager next to me was dipping his biscuits into the architects tea!
Most unusual project
Hastings Pier! We had to have a safety boat as part of the control measures for working above the sea and a schedule of all the tides!
Most embarrassing moment at P&P
Falling up the stairs in the office on my first day at Playles…
Best known for
Eating chocolate! And singing!
