QS Charles Ltd provides professional Chartered Quantity Surveyor services to both public and private clients.
A decision was made in 2010 to form a company that could deliver quality, value and results to both corporate and private individual clients, in what has been a challenging realignment of the economic and commercial global environment that existed and operated for a respective chapter in recent economic history.
The way both private and public sector clients assess, procure, manage and deliver their respective goals, has changed in recent times in both the internal and external supply chains.

What inspired you to start this business?
For many years my journey to gain professional experience and qualifications has been my goal, and an extremely difficult path to have walked. There have been obstacles and hurdles on this journey, both in my professional and personal life.
The inspiration has come from my beloved family, through what they have achieved and in the way they have conducted their professional and family life. Without the foundations placed by them, I would not have made the most of the opportunities that have been presented to me. I also respect and regard the previous companies that have employed me, as they helped build my knowledge and skills, and I have acquired a wealth of experience from them.
Charles Ridley has a wealth of experience and skills in Chartered Surveying
Do you have any staff or partners in your business?
Currently we have no directly employed staff – but the business is already looking to grow and it will need dedicated good quality and valued full time individuals, who will be treated and respected in order that we all grow and deliver together the common shared goal.
Where do you see your business in 3 years?
I have set QS Charles two important 3 year milestones: to have delivered quality, value and results to our clients beyond their expectations; and also in parallel we have provided a company for people to positively enjoy, contribute to, enjoy working for, and be proud to be part of.
What characteristics do you have that will help you make your business a success?
I have developed the professional discipline of using my eyes, ears, voice, mind, and experience when making professional decisions. At QS Charles we respect others, value peoples’ opinions, views, beliefs, cultures, circumstances and situations.
What are you most keen to learn that will help you grow your business?
The business will grow through maintaining a recognition that that a company only exists by way of its people, and I wish to learn more about placing the future members of this company in an environment whereby they are happy, respected, regarded, and can individually grow for the benefit of themselves, the company and our clients.
