Meet Hannah Fawdry | The Construction Contract Expert By Your Side

Expertise, Integrity, and a Passion for Building Confidence

My name is Hannah Fawdry, and I love helping trades, subs and property owners understand construction. I have a Construction Law Degree and Masters and have worked in the industry for years. I know these challenges firsthand, from contract disputes and budget issues to compliance headaches and high-pressure project delays. Which is why I created Build Confidence: to give my clients the expertise and support necessary to hit their targets.

My journey began in M&E Quantity Surveying, working on-site and then later in the office. This experience gave me a clear understanding of the entire construction process; I’ve handled every aspect, and this has given me a highly well-informed position on what it takes to deliver successful projects.

Some commercial managers take a more aggressive approach, but I believe in collaboration and proactive problem-solving. I’m passionate about contracts and understand their complexities, but my focus is on preventing disputes rather than escalating them. I work closely with my clients, building strong relationships based on trust, transparency, and open communication.

Being a woman in a traditionally male-dominated field has also given me a unique advantage. I bring strong communication and negotiation skills to the table, helping to build positive relationships, and I find that my clients appreciate my approachable style and my genuine desire to help them succeed.

Women in Construction

Breaking barriers. Building futures. Inspiring the next generation.

With years of experience in the industry, I’ve seen the progress we’ve made—but there’s still so much more to do. That’s why I’m passionate about breaking barriers, supporting women in construction, and encouraging the younger generation to explore careers in this dynamic industry.

From apprenticeships to industry events, I actively mentor, speak, and engage with schools to promote opportunities for women and young people. By sharing my experience and championing change, I’m committed to shaping a more inclusive and diverse future in construction.
