Peter Falla wins Lifetime Achievement 


Looking back at 2019, PF+A have so much to be proud of and grateful for. Not only did we take on some fantastic projects with inspirational clients, but we, and most importantly Peter Falla, were recognised for it.


The Lifetime Achievement at the Guernsey Property and Construction Awards recognises personalities that have made a special contribution to the island during their career. As our founder and the integral member of PF+A, Pete has spent his life finding ways to improve the lives of everyone around him through giving back to the community, spreading wisdom and providing leadership. He also creates amazing architecture too!


The presentation ceremony in November was certainly an evening to remember, with fantastic cabaret shows and conversation. It was a privilege to be sat among such inspirational members of the property and construction industry. 


“The Guernsey Property & Construction Lifetime Achievement Awards was completely unexpected and although I was very pleased to receive this recognition, hopefully, there is plenty more for me yet to achieve going forward!”


Co-founder and organiser of the event Julie Todd, said: “This year has seen more customers and businesses involved than ever before. “It is clear from the number of entries for this year’s awards that local property and construction-related businesses take their work very seriously and understand that great workmanship, on time and on budget is essential. It was a wonderful evening for the winners, but all the finalists should be thrilled to have got this far.”


2019 has been a year that will go down in PF+A history. We have enjoyed continued growth and expansion with new faces and a new office! Lots have changed in terms of the managerial roles, with Peter Falla remaining at the heart of the firm, acting as a mentor, senior planning consultant and a spokesperson for the company whilst John Hibbs takes on overseeing the strategy and performance pan-island as CEO. But what remains the same is our ethos and passion; we believe in enhancing lives for all.

Having been educated and grown up in Guernsey and developing a passion for technical design work, information technology and an intrigue for building design and history during his GCSE years, Oliver decided to commence his career in 1999 as an Architectural Technologist with Lovell Ozanne one of the largest architectural practices in the Channel Islands,  During those first inspiring 9 years he gained his BTEC HNC qualification increasing his fundamental experience and developing his knowledge base by working on multi-million pound commercial and residential developments including, Mixed Use and Redevelopment Areas (MURA), offices, apartments and industrial units.  

Moving to the States of Guernsey’s Property Services Team in 2008, Oliver was able to learn invaluable working skills and practices, increasing his expanding skillset in tendering and contract administration, whilst having the opportunity to work on public buildings and the differing challenges brought about by these types of projects. These projects encompassed education premises, States buildings with high security requirements, projects at the airport and harbours and fully accessible health facilities.  Full Accessibility audits for the health facilities became a prominent project for Oliver as his career progressed and he carried out a number of audits and reports for substantial business within the Island.

Now with a total of 21 years’ experience within the industry, his expansive knowledge not only covers all areas of a very vast field, but includes all aspects of a project from inception right through to the final handover of a completed project; which, for Oliver is the most rewarding experience. 

Oliver’s exceptional wealth of knowledge has lead him to gain his chartership with the Chartered Institute of Architectural Technologists and was formally invited to become an Interview Assessor for the Institute in 2015, a position limited to only a small number and in which someone can only be invited by the Institute.  Oliver completed the necessary assessor training a few months later.  

Ever striving to continue growing and expanding his professional knowledge, Oliver is a driven member of PF+A and one of the top in his field. With his professional yet friendly approachable nature he is an individual able to facilitate and communicate to clients, contractors, sub-contractors and other third parties to ensure that a project is always the best it can be.  Internally an exceptional trainer to the less experienced members of the team with an ease of teaching methods to ensure an unseamingly level of continuity for their development.

In his spare time Oliver enjoys spending time with his young family of three daughters, experiencing travelling and cultural diversity and of course Guernsey’s beautiful outdoor environment.
