About
With over 20 years' experience in the construction industry, I bring a comprehensive understanding of building services, project delivery, and strategic leadership. My journey from apprentice electrician through to director has equipped me with a broad perspective and the ability to manage teams, foster client relationships, and lead technically challenging projects to success. My extensive knowledge of electrical systems is complemented by a strong grasp of mechanical and building services, enabling me to provide solutions.
I have a proven ability to work effectively with both clients and contractors, ensuring delivery of high-quality design and installation. Recently I have delivered five Data centres, from stage 2 to stage 5, three of which have been modular design. During each design phase, I oversaw multiple engineers, third party designers and dealt directly with the clients and design teams across Europe.
