Our Team
Tim
Builder/ Director
As the director at Quality First, Tim has an array of qualifications and certifications including a Certificate III in Carpentry, Cert IV in Building & Construction and a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Management & Leadership. Tim realised he loved being outdoors working and began labouring on friends’ worksites eventually picking up a carpentry apprenticeship, leading him to complete his Certificate IV in Building & Construction and become a licensed builder. Tim loves the satisfaction of being able to look back on a finished project and know that it was his team that made it happen. Tim’s strong communication, organisational and management skills garnered from previous roles has given him a strong work ethic, drive and problem-solving ability which helps his team push through difficult situations. Outside of work, Tim loves to spend time with his wife, three young children, and ridgeback dog. Living in Yaroomba they spend a lot of time at the beach, but also love to go exploring in the hinterland as well and feel incredibly lucky to live in such a beautiful location.
ryan
Building Designer/Draftsperson
After attaining his Diploma of Building Design seven years ago and gaining 5 years of experience, Ryan took on the role at Quality First Constructions as lead designer/draftsperson. He has always found the building environment fascinating with its wide range of possibilities, and ever-changing scope of work. Ryan loves the idea that he can help clients design the home of their dreams, to give them a functional and beautiful space. He’s very approachable and easygoing, helping the client feel comfortable through an empathetic and understanding approach to all clients’ needs and desires. “I can read and understand people and I believe this aids me to provide high-quality results. I also pride myself on my ability to provide clear, neat and accurate drawings for tradespeople to work from. We try to give the client a set of drawings that fully illustrate how their house is going to be, to help them comprehend. In my time away from work my favourite place to escape from reality is when I play and coach the beautiful game, football, I also spend a large amount of time in my garden where I find the work never ends”.
TOM

Tom is our Project Manager, liaising with the clients, suppliers and subcontractors. With previous experience in construction and customer service, Tom uses clear and constant communication to liaise with our clients, suppliers, and subcontractors throughout the project to keep everyone informed of each step and ensure a smooth and timely finish.
Toms methodical approach and calm demeanour is no coincidence, as he comes from a
strong military background in the UK and brings those qualities to the team as our
Project Manager.

problem solving is the norm. This enables Tom to transmit these values to our
team of trades, and run projects effectively and efficiently, ensuring the
smooth delivery of our projects to our happy clients.
