Buildots Appoints Former Senior CBRE and JLL Executive Peter Trollope to Advisory Board

Trollope will support engagement with construction consultants and owners as Buildots scales AI-powered operational excellence

LONDON, June 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- AI construction technology leader Buildots today announced the appointment of Peter Trollope to its advisory board. Trollope has served in senior leadership roles at some of the world's largest construction and real estate companies, most recently as Global Head of Project Management Advisory at CBRE Group, where he led a business unit with over 5,000 staff and USD $1 billion annual turnover.

Trollope's appointment marks Buildots' first advisory board member with deep construction consultancy expertise, reflecting the company's strategic expansion into this sector. His consultancy background, combined with earlier general contractor roots and years working directly with owners, gives him a unique 360-degree view of the construction ecosystem and supports Buildots' mission to drive industry-wide operational excellence.

"After years leading transformation in global real estate and construction services, I've seen firsthand how our industry's delivery models still rely too heavily on manual oversight and subjective reporting," said Trollope. "Joining Buildots felt like a natural next step: to help scale a solution that moves our industry from gut-feel to objective truth, and from firefighting to foresight."

With 18 years of international leadership experience across Asia Pacific, Europe, and North America, Trollope's track record includes implementing multiple M&A transactions, culminating in CBRE's $1.3 billion Turner & Townsend investment, and leading double-digit growth at JLL. At CBRE, Trollope sustained consistent annual growth while implementing ambitious transformation programs across multiple global divisions.

"Peter's deep understanding of how owners, consultancies and capital partners operate makes him invaluable as we expand our reach within this critical market segment," said Roy Danon, co-founder and CEO of Buildots. "His track record of scaling professional services businesses and driving operational excellence perfectly complements our vision of transforming construction through AI-driven insights."

Trollope added that joining Buildots is "an opportunity to be part of something that's not just digitizing workflows but fundamentally changing how we deliver value on site. It's rare to see a platform that serves both the boardroom and the boots-on-the-ground with equal clarity, but Buildots is doing exactly that."

The appointment comes just weeks after Buildots announced its Series D funding round, amid significant growth, scaling of operations and product enhancements. Recent launches include the industry-first Line of Balance tool, Portfolio Dashboard for construction executives and the Dot AI assistant for natural language project queries.

Beyond driving Buildots adoption, Trollope aims to help reshape industry mindsets around delay and cost risk. "A huge amount of project risk stems from misalignment between what's reported and what's actually happening on site. That disconnect fuels late payments, finger-pointing, and rushed decisions. I want to challenge the industry to stop tolerating these as inevitable," he said. "We've accepted too many structural inefficiencies for too long."
