About BuildChain
BuildChain was created by people with direct experience in construction delivery, pricing, subcontractor engagement and commercial growth. The business exists to improve how subcontractor capability is introduced to real projects, reducing friction while increasing confidence on both sides of the supply chain.

Jack has spent years building relationships with subcontractors and delivery teams, aligning the right businesses with the right work. That combination of delivery insight and commercial development underpins the BuildChain model.
