Jack has a strong knowledge of construction methods and risks, working with contractors to develop safe and buildable solutions.

In his spare time, Jack enjoys time on the water, he is a keen scuba diver with around 600 dives so far! Jack is also a qualified diving instructor and likes to powerboat when he’s not underwater…
