Own The Build
Own the Build is the podcast for Quantity Surveyors and Commercial Directors who want to sharpen their commercial edge and lead with confidence.
Hosted by Paul Heming, former Commercial leader and now co-founder of C-Link, each week’s conversation dives into the realities of modern commercial management — from procurement and contracts to digital transformation and leadership in construction.
Through honest discussions with industry leaders, forensic planners, and forward-thinking QSs, Paul explores how the best commercial teams deliver profit, performance, and project certainty in a changing industry.
If you’re serious about mastering the commercial side of construction — this is where you build your advantage.

Data and designing an equitable built environment in the ‘post-growth’ era. (EP 161)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, Paul is joined by two colleagues from Arup, Ian Gordon, a former QS who describes himself as “Doing some data stuff for the built & natural environment”, and Ola Gwozdz, who describes herself as a Data Philosopher.
In today’s conversation, Ola and Ian explain the importance of Data in the Built Environment and share how Arup works towards a data revolution and what this means for construction professionals.
