Core Five was founded in 2012. From humble beginnings, we’ve grown in our first decade into a 160 strong business providing world-class Cost Consultancy and Employer’s Agent services to market leading Clients in London, the UK and overseas.

Since our inception, our aim has been to play our part in the creation of innovative built environments that enrich lives, spark opportunities and move towards a more sustainable world for the next generation.

From complex commercial, residential and mixed-use projects and towers to unique cultural venues and international stadia, Core Five has been a driving force in support of some of the most ground-breaking and successful construction projects in the UK and internationally for the past 11 years.

Protecting our Clients’ interests is our number one goal. That’s why we don’t just “count the beans”, but work proactively with your team to enhance the value of your development.

Leveraging our wealth of data and benchmarking, we provide powerful commercial solutions that reduce risk, safeguard your budget and protect your ROI. We help you get the best from a difficult contracting market and ensure best practice is adopted throughout every stage of your project. And perhaps most crucially, we make the complex simple – providing the clarity you need to make confident decisions that maximise your return.
