Leadership and Professional Recognition

Volarex is led by Adam Whitehouse, a Chartered consultant with over 20 years' experience across the construction and built environment sectors.

His career spans senior roles in quantity surveying, building engineering, risk management, construction management, and health and safety leadership, including major Tier 1 developments valued in excess of £200 million, as well as complex refurbishment and restoration projects.

Adam is also a distinguished member of the Counselors of Real Estate (CRE), a prestigious, invite-only global association of leading real estate advisors. Notably, he is one of only two members in the United Kingdom, reflecting his standing as a trusted expert within the profession.

"This award is a proud moment for an independent practice," said Adam Whitehouse. "It reflects the value of chartered diligence and clear advice — whether supporting homebuyers or advising commercial clients on risk and delivery."
