Employer’s Agents may not make the headlines, but without them, housing ambitions would struggle to become reality.

We were pleased to contribute to Lovell Partnerships Ltd’s latest roundtable exploring how EAs can help unlock the Government’s 1.5M new homes ambition with Claire Flowers, Director, sharing the Employer’s Agent perspective on Potter Raper’s behalf.

The discussion made one thing clear: despite uncertainty across the housing system, EAs remain the trusted connectors linking clients, contractors, and councils, turning ambition into delivery.

What’s working:

✅ Early, trust-based partnerships speed up decisions and reduce disputes

🤝 Open-book collaboration builds confidence

⚙️ Earlier EA engagement at RIBA 0–2 could ease Gateway 2 delays and improve outcomes

Employer’s Agents quietly keep the housing system moving, translating complexity into progress. Find out more about our Employer’s Agent service here.
