THORNE GROUP: BUILDING ARCHITECTURAL HOMES SINCE 2007

Marc Russell

Project Manager

After growing up in Invercargill I moved first to Dunedin then Queenstown where I qualified as a builder while working on high end residential projects. Leaving NZ to explore the world, my OE took me through the US and Canada before basing myself in Glasgow. From there I continued to explore Europe, funding my travel adventures by working on heritage listed home renovations.

After returning to NZ, my wife and I moved to the Mount in 2015 where I worked as a foreman on high-end residential builds before taking the leap into project management. With the experience I’ve gained over the years working with some very talented tradespeople on some amazing builds I pride myself in problem solving and having an eye for finishing lines to produce high quality work.

I spend my time away from work with my young family, enjoying time with friends, surfing as often as possible and squeezing in trips back to the South Island whenever we can.
