Apex Airspace working on string of jobs across London

A London developer who uses offsite methods to build homes on other people鈥檚 roofs has appointed a former Mace operations director to its construction team. 

Apex Airspace was founded in 2015 and purchases airspace rights from owners of residential, commercial and public buildings 鈥� before putting in extensions using parts manufactured offsite.

Now the group has appointed Jonathan Poole as its new construction director bringing staff numbers at the Marylebone-based business up to 24 鈥� up from 10 at the end of last year.

Before working at Mace, Poole also had stints at Bath-based housing association Curo and consultant Ridge.

Another former Curo and Ridge staffer, Ricardo Simoes, has joined the firm as a senior project manager. His CV includes spells at Capita and Davis Langdon.

The firm is currently working on five schemes, including a deal to build more than 30 apartments for Lambeth & Southwark Housing Association in Bermondsey.

Apex Airspace鈥檚 chief executive, Arshad Bhatti, said it was 鈥渋n discussions鈥� about developing 2,200 homes across both the public and private sectors in the capital.
