Balata was created to support clients through what is often a complex and high-stakes process - building, renovating, and developing residential property.
With more than 15 years’ experience across the builder side, client side, and as an active property investor and developer, I provide independent project management across bespoke homes, renovations, and small-scale developments.
The focus is simple: clear advice, strong coordination, and protecting outcomes across time, cost, and quality - bridging design intent, construction practicality, cost, and client priorities.
Every project is different, but the approach remains the same - structure, transparency, and attention to detail from briefing through to completion.

“If you’re looking for a project manager who brings clarity, tenacity, and commercial smarts to complex developments, I can’t recommend Ben highly enough. When the stakes are high and the details matter, he’s the person you want in your corner.”
