Nicola McClean

Nicola joined the practice as a graduate Architect in 1992. Further to passing her part 3 and progressing as a Project Architect, the introduction of the CDM regulations prompted the practice to train her as a Planning Supervisor.

In 1995 Nicola and Walter Wood set up the practices’ sister company Alliance CDM. As a Director of Alliance CDM, she continues her role as CDM adviser to QB Wood Architects. With the new 2015 CDM regulations now in effect, she assists the practice with their principal designer role and oversees all health & safety issues within the practice.
