At Corex, design and cost control work
together to deliver the best project
possible for the client.

Corex Consultancy Ltd was founded in 2016 by Quantity Surveyor James Mannix and Architect Paula Kelleher. At Corex, we deliver projects as a team rather than as a collection of individual professionals and practices. We leverage a mixture of in-house expertise and external collaborators to deliver the best project possible for our clients.

Our Approach

We provide our clients with the core services required to realise their building projects. We project manage, design, cost, and work with other consultants and contractors to act as a single point of contact for the client, minimising the stress involved for them in the design, procurement and delivery of construction work.

Team

James Mannix

James has over 20 years industry experience. He is a qualified Quantity Surveyor which gives our practice a strong cost control emphasis. He also has a qualification in Innovation Management providing some much-needed lateral thinking.

Paula Kelleher

Paula is an RIAI registered Architect. Her belief is that good design shouldn’t automatically cost more. For her, design is more than making things look good, it is about improving functionality and joy for both client and end user.

Christina Somers

Christina is a Chartered Quantity Surveyor with experience delivering large scale projects such as hospitals, apartment complexes and commercial buildings in Edinburgh, Vancouver and London. Christina’s strength is in seeing the bigger picture, but she isn’t afraid of getting stuck into the detail.

Jacinta MacGillicuddy

Jacinta is qualified as a Quantity Surveyor and has over 20 years’ experience. Jacinta loves detail and is extremely knowledgeable of building processes and their effect on project costs.

We like to ask why. We are never afraid to question traditional processes. We like to get to know our clients’ business and project specific requirements. We tailor solutions and services according to our clients’ business or personal circumstances. We want to have fun. This includes delivering difficult projects.
