LABC Building Excellence Awards 2022 winner: LABC Newcomer of the Year

More than 850 leading construction industry figures attended the LABC Building Excellence Awards at the Westminster Park Plaza Hotel to celebrate best practice, quality, and exemplary standards in construction.

The LABC Building Excellence Awards focus on professional skills and competence, as well as projects, with categories for ‘People’ and ‘Places.’

A panel of industry experts judged a selection of the highest quality projects, professionals, and teams from around England and Wales to showcase solutions to complex technical or construction issues, site constraints and technical innovation. The awards highlight the vital contribution public sector building control teams make as part of the project team, ensuring safe, sustainable, and high-quality construction projects. 

LABC is delighted to announce that the winner of the LABC Newcomer of the Year Award is Courtney Bryan from the London Borough of Lewisham.

Going beyond his role, to help improve and upskill others on the Council’s IT systems, Courtney has also been helping the team’s digitisation push in his free time. He has demonstrated a fantastic start to what will surely be a long and distinguished career in local authority building control.

Congratulating Courtney on his success, Lorna Stimpson, LABC Chief Executive said,
