Craig Woollett
Site Supervisor / Foreman
Meet Craig, a veteran of the industry with three decades of experience and sharpening of skills. Craig is a thoughtful builder, a true problem solver. He can review a plan and instantly know how to bring it to fruition – that’s his favourite part of the job, “Some of our clients have held a vision in their heads for years of what their dream home could look like, but it’s tough for some people to think in 3D. By being able to visualise the build we can translate that for clients. I love bringing it to life and seeing their excitement as it takes shape. “ Mangawhai has won him over because of its laid-back nature, contrasted by a busy and fun summer season.
Nathan Purcell
Site Supervisor / Foreman
Clients appreciate Nathan’s organized manner, his regular communication and fastidious workmanship. Having enjoyed building for nearly 20 years, he thrives on the more challenging designs and looks to incorporate new technologies into every project. Nathan believes the building site culture should be a positive experience for clients, sub-contractors and the team. “If everyone has a common goal of accuracy and working hard, the project goes smoothly and is incredibly rewarding.” When the tools are down, Nathan loves the local beaches and mixing with a community of good sorts.
