Scott Miller
Site Manager / OwnerBrian and I have worked together for over 10 years, from the first day we met our morals and quality of workmanship aligned straight away. We both have our unique strengths and enjoy learning from one another. This is reflected through the onsite environment at Building works with a handpicked team. There is nothing more satisfying than standing back and looking at a beautifully finished project.
I grew up in the industry and began building over 20 years ago, starting my career as a carpenter on super yachts. My experience has helped develop an affinity toward high end fittings and luxury finishes, attention to detail and nailing the finishing touches is what sets us apart at Building Works. In my free time I enjoy anything to do with the water, kiteboarding and diving mainly, I spent 3 weeks diving in Raja Ampat and was blown away by the biodiversity of the area.
