Jersey-based HLG Associates and Guernsey’s Lindum Consult are joining forces to create a pan-island provider of project management, quantity surveying, and construction advisory services.
It’s hoped the merger - which will see HLG continue to trade in Guernsey as Lindum - will create new job opportunities for surveyors and project managers.
HLG has worked on a variety of Jersey and UK-based projects since 2010, ranging from the redevelopment of old St Martin’s School and advising on the multi-million-pound Palace of Westminster restoration project.
Lindum Consult has provided quantity surveyor and construction consultancy services in Guernsey since 2009, working with numerous clients including a prominent seafront property for the Fuller Group and a £1.5 million waste sorting facility for the Guernsey Recycling Group.

Andrew Morley, who will continue as managing director in Guernsey, said: "The benefits of bringing together Lindum and HLG presents a real opportunity to support clients in both islands that are seeking professional advice and strong support with decision-making on their construction and infrastructure projects.”
He will be supported by HLG’s Jerry Willis, who takes on the role of director for the company’s Guernsey-based arm.
‘There’s been a lot of talk politically and within the industry that both islands should be collaborating more and working closer together. HLG is now able to contribute to this debate, and to share our experience with clients and associates in both islands. Utilising our knowledge as a platform for connecting opportunities, we’ll be able to deliver real benefits and realise efficiencies on those projects we’re appointed to advise on,” Mr Willis added.
