Meet the team.

A team you can call. The two founders who started Nationserv in 2015 are still running it. They are supported by two senior surveyors and an office manager who keeps every claim moving from instruction to handover.

The team

Insurance work demands accountability. When a homeowner is in distress and an insurer needs reassurance, you cannot point to a faceless org chart and hope for the best. You point to the person making the decision.

The leadership team sits at the top of Nationserv. Both founders are still here, a decade on. The wider team includes an experienced office function and more than one hundred skilled tradespeople, but every one of them ultimately reports up through the people on this page.

Founders

Started together. Still together.

Co founder

Rhys Morosco.

Chief Executive Officer

Rhys began his career after completing a business degree at university, moving directly into the construction industry with a small start up maintenance company. Over the next eight years he played a key role in helping the business grow significantly, an experience that proved both formative and eye opening.

As the company evolved, creative and ideological differences with the directors ultimately led Rhys to take a bold step and establish his own business. While this first venture was unsuccessful, it provided invaluable lessons that strengthened his resolve and sharpened his leadership approach.

Undeterred, Rhys went on to establish Nationserv in 2015, founded on a clear vision and strong identity. Under his leadership, the business has focused on delivering clients' visions on time, on budget, and without compromise.

Rhys believes that integrity is the defining factor of long term success. His philosophy is simple: when honesty, accountability, and respect guide decision making, both the business and its people naturally stand out.

When you choose Nationserv as your trusted partner, we take that responsibility personally. Your objectives become our objectives, your risks become ours, and your success becomes the measure by which we judge ourselves.
Co founder

Darren Notschild.

Partner

Darren began his career in construction as an apprentice, gaining hands on experience from the ground up. Early on, he developed a strong practical understanding of the industry by working across multiple trades, building a broad skill set that gave him a clear appreciation of how quality workmanship and effective coordination come together on site.

As his experience grew, so did his responsibilities. Darren moved into supervisory and leadership roles, where he developed a reputation for reliability, problem solving, and a calm, solutions focused approach to complex projects.

Today, as a Partner of Nationserv, Darren leads a large scale trade network, supported by an experienced office team and a fleet of surveyors working across multiple sites. He is responsible for ensuring projects run efficiently, safely, and to the highest standards, from initial survey through to completion.

Darren's journey from apprentice to director reflects his belief that strong foundations, hard work, and attention to detail are the cornerstones of long term success in construction.

After his initial year at Nationserv, he progressed into a senior surveyor role, overseeing the office team on a day to day basis.

A Member of the Chartered Institute of Building (MCIOB), Sam works closely with insurers, loss adjusters, and policyholders to deliver accurate scopes, clear costings, and practical repair solutions following insured events such as escape of water, fire, impact damage, and subsidence claims.

Senior Surveyor

Sam started at Nationserv in March 2022 as a skilled Multi Trader working on the tools. After ten successful months within the Nationserv group, an opportunity opened up to become a fundamental part of the office team as a Surveyor. As an experienced tradesman it was a natural progression, bringing on the tools knowledge into the survey side of the business.

Sam works closely with insurers, loss adjusters, and policyholders to produce accurate scopes, clear costings, and practical solutions following insured events such as escape of water, fire, impact damage, and other property related claims.
