About Us

McDonnell Consulting Ltd is a Chartered Quantity Surveying and Construction Cost Consultancy led by Sean McDonnell MRICS.

Sean has over fifteen years’ experience in the construction industry, having worked in private practice and with a large global multi-disciplinary project management and professional services company. The strong technical skills nurtured over many years in the industry, coupled with the leadership skills developed within a large global business structure, provide the nucleus around which Sean formed McDonnell Consulting Ltd in 2016.

Sean has managed construction costs on many iconic and prestigious projects during his career to date. He has gained considerable expertise in the successful delivery of a wide ranging portfolio of projects from inception to completion, in many sectors including healthcare, residential, commercial, industrial, public realm and large mixed use developments, managing costs on projects of capital values ranging from £100k to £70m. Sean is both a team player, and a team leader, who integrates well with fellow professionals and project stakeholders to ensure the objectives of clients are delivered effectively.

The primary aim of McDonnell Consulting Ltd is to deliver high quality services to respected and valued clients, through innovative approaches without losing sight of the core principles of construction cost management. Sean is keen to be at the forefront of service delivery, liaising with clients on a day to day basis, building on relationships already established, and developing positive and mutually beneficial relationships with new clients and industry professionals.

McDonnell Consulting Ltd is a firm regulated by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS). This regulatory model holds the profession to the globally recognised standards of RICS and is seen as being vital in inspiring confidence among clients and the public. McDonnell Consulting Ltd is also a verified member of Constructionline, the UK’s leading procurement and supply chain management service, thus providing recognition that we align to the required levels of industry and government standards.
