Mike comes from an FMCG background, having run companies in the UK across numerous well-known food and beverage brands. Prior to establishing After Build, Mike spent time with WH Smith developing a national web-based ordering portal for their wholesale newspaper and magazine subsidiary.

After Build was first conceived in 2002 and after a successful pilot launched a year later. Introducing the concept of fixed-price after care for new home developers, today we are market leaders in cost-effective property warranty management.

The first half of Mark’s career was spent in media – specifically regional press, radio and latterly TV having headed up Trinity Mirror’s venture in the Midlands.

Working also at WH Smith’s news and print ordering subsidiary, Mark and Mike have an enormous collective experience in after care and this led ultimately to the pilot of the After Build concept in 2002. A year later the full service was launched. We continue to innovate to maintain our market leading position.

After a stint in the military, Mark has spent a working life managing, running and eventually owning businesses in the print industry.

Such diverse experience serves him well as he now heads up the After Build Operations team. Every 5 minutes is a new deadline with a need to be across many variations of our service.

Kerri is at the coal-face of service delivery, managing our team of Property Coordinators who, take and manage thousands of calls from homeowners across the UK – every day.

With a background in call centre management, the rigours of a busy department keep everyone on their toes, not least Kerri who also manages the individual personal development of every member of her team as well as training and ongoing service improvements.
