25% Off The Streetwise Subbie 4th Edition 

Written by StreetwiseSubbie founder and  MD Barry Ashmore, The Streetwisesubbie 4th edition is a great new rework of the original book “The Streetwise Subbie” by Jack Russell.  Barry brings Jack’s original work bang up to date with help and advice on how to tackle the modern day world of subcontracting in the construction Industry.

One of Jack’s colleagues had this to say about the book:

“I worked with John (Jack) for a good number of years. He was a good friend and mentor to me. I’m so glad so see his work continued and continued so well…even to the point where my trainees on university course are being recommended to the book.

I hope he would be proud of how you have kept it alive.

Well done.”

Ian Fielden
