Hi,
Retiling a corner shower (brick wall). Have removed tiles and one of the walls is about 10mm out of plumb on bottom half of wall.
What would anyone recommend to build this out to make wall plumb before tiling?
Thanks

Difficult to advise for sure without pics.
Can you dot and dab a new board on the wall or is there insufficient space to the shower tray edge?
You could maybe use a 9mm tile backer board to help build the wall out 🤷🏼‍♂️
Pics will deffo assist to provide the best advice.

Pics won't upload for some reason, sizes too large. Could I use a sand/cement render to level it out or is there something quicker to set? Can you use quick set adhesive to build out a bit or bonding coat?

You shouldn't tile directly to bonding mate. Pics would be good as well as knowing the reason why it is being retiled?
