Bob Richardson

Managing Director & Co-Founder

Bob Richardson’s many years working in the property, event and construction industry and as the former Managing Director of RLB have cemented his status within the industry. Bob helped that brand develop its core values and become recognised as a leader in property, construction, cost management and advisory services.

As owner and Managing Director Bob’s reputation for professionalism and wide experience in providing the full range of services on major developments has been of particular value during the early phases of strategic planning.

He (Bob) has often been involved in major projects at a very senior level (often representing Government or institutional investors by providing advice in the early stages of investment and development opportunities).

Following the successful completion of the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games, Bob has been involved in numerous ongoing sports related commissions and roles. He has been involved in every Olympic Games Bid or delivery since Sydney 2000.

His commitment to ensure that all his projects receive a thorough review of the construction methodology, program, constraints and market conditions to identify any inconsistencies and risks and to suggest options and match forecasts to final results are one of the many reasons people seek out his advice.
