EK’s Six Core Values
At the heart of our approach is the focus on people rather than buildings.
We help other people — particularly landlords, tenants, building managers and contractors — work together in the most efficient and effective way. We understand that being a great surveyor is as much about empathy and people management as it is about property.
Hence our Core Values — they are not about party walls, major works or license to alter, but about the qualities that enable us to do those things better than any other surveying company. We do it because we are passionate about what we do. Because we are approachable. Because we are agile enough to respond to each client’s needs.
We haven’t won awards simply because our work is good, but because of the way we approach it, which we believe to be outstanding.
Contemporary
We understand how fast our industry is changing, and we are committed to being at the forefront of change, not applying yesterday’s solutions to today’s problems.
Leaders
We don’t just follow trends, but anticipate them, and help both clients and fellow professionals stay ahead of the curve by taking a lead and showing the way.
Approachable
We are a people-oriented business, and relish any opportunity to talk to prospective clients or partners about how we can help, whether with friendly advice or a comprehensive professional service.
Collaborators
We are team players, and in any given project we work closely with fellow stakeholders, and above all clients, to ensure we operate both collaboratively and efficiently.
Entrepreneurs
Our business is dynamic and forward looking, and we are always looking for opportunities to grow, to take on new challenges and offer new services.
Agile
In a fast-moving industry, we understand the importance of being able to adapt quickly, embracing new technologies and ideas so we can offer a dynamic and bespoke service to our clients.
