Gateley Vinden Expands London Project Management Team

Gateley Vinden has strengthened its project management team in London with the appointment of Olga Kondaurova as associate director.

Kondaurova brings 18 years of experience in the built environment, including project management and real estate analyst roles at AECOM and CBRE. Her expertise spans residential, commercial, leisure, and hospitality sectors, as well as real estate investment for high-net-worth individuals globally.

Throughout her career, she has managed projects across the full construction lifecycle, including the UCLH proton beam therapy centre and the A303 Amesbury to Berwick Down (Stonehenge) improvement scheme.

At Gateley Vinden, Kondaurova will lead the delivery of project management, quantity surveying, and contract administration services for the Wheat Quarter redevelopment in Welwyn Garden City.

"Not only is Gateley Vinden working on some really exciting projects across London and the South East, but I also felt the consultancy's values very much matched mine in terms of service provided to clients," said Kondaurova. "It's also really exciting to be part of the wider professional services group, Gateley. Having both legal and technical consultancy expertise in-house to offer a one-stop shop is such a unique advantage within the construction sector."

Gary Allen, head of project management and quantity surveying at Gateley Vinden, said: "Olga brings extensive experience in managing some excellent projects from initial concept through to delivery. Her expertise and enthusiasm for the industry will be a valuable addition to both boost and develop our offering for clients in London and the wider South East."
