Founders & directors
At Thorne Group, the strength and depth of our team truly sets us apart.
Led by founders and directors, General Manager - Aaron Thorne (centre) has decades of project management experience paired with a sound understanding of land development, geotechnical challenges and site feasibility.
Construction Director - Gavin Morrow (left), a master craftsman with experience building high-end homes across Europe, has developed many of the refined (and often unique) systems we now use to successfully deliver complex rural and coastal builds. Peter Buck (right) ensures strong financial governance, clear project oversight, and ethical business practices – giving both clients and architects confidence from start to finish.
20 YEARS OF CONTINOUS IMPROVEMENT
How we refined systems over 20+ years
The depth of experience across our team is significant, from complex geotechnical developments to building high-end homes in Europe, through to developing systems for large international companies.
Over two decades we have refined our systems so projects run better, both on and off site. We know how details can be executed better and supplier relationships optimised. Efficiency protects your budget. It is not about cutting corners. It is about removing waste.
On site we keep our teams small and consistent, each led by a foreman with at least 20 years of experience. We feel our family name is on every build.
Our service and governance model is unlike anything else in the industry.
