He is your primary contact within the organisation and will be able to answer your queries and listen to your development plans.

Going on-site is important to Grant as it’s all too easy to sit behind a computer screen and convince yourself that you have all the information.  Please feel free to ask Grant to visit your site to meet with you, appreciate your slice of heaven, and discuss your development plans.
