From Junior Surveyor to Principal Consultant: 18 Years at Plowman Craven<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Plowman Craven, our people are the heart of everything we do. Bav Naran is one of those people. He is a Principal Consultant in our Asset Management team, whose career journey shows what\u2019s possible with curiosity, commitment and opportunity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bav joined the business in 2007 as a Junior Surveyor. Over the past 18 years, he\u2019s worked across surveying, project management and client-facing roles. Therefore, he has built a broad understanding of how projects are delivered from start to finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019ve done every role in the team,\u201d<\/em> Bav explains. \u201cThat experience gives me confidence now. You can\u2019t sell something unless you truly understand how it\u2019s delivered.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his current role, Bav focuses on scoping, quoting and winning work. His approach is simple: listen first. \u201cClients don\u2019t always know exactly what they need, so it\u2019s about patience, responsiveness and attention to detail,\u201d he says. \u201cThat\u2019s how we make sure every project is set up for success.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bav thrives in a fast-paced environment. His team handles a high volume of quotes each month. Notably, his personal record is just eight minutes from enquiry to quotation. \u201cSpeed is important, but accuracy and client care come first,\u201d <\/em>he adds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some highlights from his career include surveying shopping centres in Abu Dhabi and large-scale projects at Canary Wharf and Regent Street. Along the way, Bav has seen Plowman Craven evolve, with new technologies, systems and processes. However, the trust and support within the business remain constant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Outside of work, Bav is a proud dad of two children and enjoys family time, Lego building, travel (where possible). \u201cMy family is my biggest inspiration,\u201d<\/em> he says. \u201cThey keep me focused in everything I do.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bav\u2019s journey shows that with hands-on experience, technical expertise and a client-first approach, a career at Plowman Craven can grow and evolve in exciting ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
