Walker Sime

25 Years of Delivering Excellence in the North West

Founded in Manchester in 1999 by Dez Walker and Jon Sime, we have grown from a two-man operation into a powerhouse team of 80 specialists. We aren't just consultants; we are the partners you count on to ensure your projects run smoothly, profitably, and—crucially—enjoyably.

Based out of three regional offices, we have built a reputation as the go-to people for technical excellence. We understand that you get to choose the people you work with, which is why we focus on building rock-solid relationships based on trust, respect, and a bit of straight-talking.

Why Clients "In-the-Know" Choose Us

We believe that technical excellence is the baseline, but it’s our people who make the difference. In a recent independent audit, our clients were asked what they liked best about us. The answer was emphatic: "It’s all about the people."

We are known for:

• Straight-talking advice: We aren't afraid to challenge a brief or deliver difficult news if it protects your investment.
• Obsessive attention to detail: We dig deeper than most to ensure every bill of quantities and project plan is rock solid.
• Technical Versatility: From marine and ports to residential and education, we have the breadth of experience to handle any sector.

Our leadership team brings decades of high-level experience to every commission, ensuring your project is in safe hands:

• Jon Neville (Managing Director): A specialist in high-pressure infrastructure projects with a background in oil and gas delivery for the likes of National Grid.
• Peter Jackson (UK Director of Project Management): With 30+ years of experience, Peter has led massive town centre regenerations and government office initiatives.
