Scafol Podcast

In this episode of the Scafol Surveying Solutions Podcast, we’re joined by Phoebe Flook to discuss her journey into the surveying profession and the bold decision to launch her own firm.

Starting her training with Sava on the very day the UK entered lockdown, Phoebe shares how she built her experience step by step, achieved her AssocRICS, and ultimately chose to go out on her own after several years in both small and large practices. We explore the key moments that led to her starting a business, the fears and unknowns she faced, the practical realities of setting up (from regulation and insurance to systems and branding), and how she won her first clients in a competitive market.

Phoebe also reflects on the biggest surprises since launching and offers honest advice for surveyors considering taking the leap themselves. A great listen for anyone interested in career progression, entrepreneurship, and what it really takes to build a surveying practice from the ground up.
