Matt Cox

Employees / Matt Cox

Since 1990, Matt has worked in the construction industry, starting with commercial building companies in London, UK. He progressed from a site foreman of civil works to a site/project manager of commercial building projects in both the UK and Sydney, Australia.

In 2006, Matt managed his first interstate CAT event for a national insurance builder, marking his entry into the insurance rebuilding industry. He saw a market opportunity for an insurance builder focused on quality work and strong client relationships.

Matt grew his business, UBS, which was acquired by ARA Building Services in 2023. Originally a small Sydney-only business, UBS now services NSW and will expand into ACT and QLD in 2024, with over $130 million in revenue completed to date.
