Profile

Joe Fay is Pre-Construction Compliance and Building Safety Director at Starfish Construction. He leads the preparation and coordination of documentation for Building Safety Regulator submissions, including Construction Control Plans and Building Regulations Compliance Statements, and sets the pre-construction compliance standards used across the company's projects.

Joe's career began in civil engineering on the rail network and moved through Construction Director roles in housebuilding to senior operational leadership in facilities management. That delivery background shapes a practical, risk-based approach, with regulatory requirements built into project planning from the start rather than added at the end.

He monitors compliance across live projects each week, supports designers, consultants and project teams to understand their statutory duties and leads compliance training within the business.
