Professional Background & Industry Experience
| The business is led by an arboricultural professional with more than 27 years of experience across the arboriculture and vegetation management sector. This experience has been gained through operational and leadership roles across multiple countries, providing exposure to a wide range of working environments including infrastructure corridors, urban tree management, utility vegetation management and commercial land management. | Career development has progressed from hands-on roles as a climber and equipment operator through to senior responsibilities including management, auditing, training, consultancy and business ownership. This progression provides a strong understanding of both practical site operations and the wider commercial and safety requirements of infrastructure and construction projects. |
Specialist Arboricultural Capability for Complex Projects
Goblin Grapple Saw was established to provide a dedicated mechanised arboricultural service for professional clients operating in infrastructure, utility and commercial environments.
The business focuses on controlled tree dismantling and specialist lifting operations where conventional arboricultural methods may be impractical due to access constraints, safety considerations or operational risk.
Operational Arboricultural Expertise
Professional experience includes vegetation management, tree risk assessment, technical inspection and reporting, and contractor engagement across complex operational sites. This includes tree and vegetation inspections, hazard and defect identification, subsidence related tree reporting and the preparation of clear evidence based reports that support clients, insurers, engineers and project teams.
Work is frequently undertaken on sensitive or time critical sites where safety, access constraints and reputational risk must be carefully managed.
Specialist Subcontract Support
Goblin Grapple Saw operates exclusively as a specialist subcontractor, supporting principal contractors, utilities providers and local authorities with additional mechanised arboricultural capability where required.
The business works collaboratively with established contractor teams and industry partners, integrating within existing project structures to provide controlled, efficient and safety led tree works.
