What I'm looking for

I seek senior roles leading large, technical construction projects (especially data centres), where I can drive delivery, optimise costs, mentor teams, and uphold high safety and quality standards.

I am a results-driven Senior Construction Project Manager with over 25 years' experience delivering large-scale Data Centre, Residential, Industrial and Civil projects across Europe, managing budgets from €5M to €100M and collaborating with multinational contractors and clients.

I combine deep technical knowledge in Civil, Structural & Architectural (CSA) and Mechanical & Electrical systems with commercial, financial and managerial acumen to align delivery with strategic business objectives, optimise profitability, and secure stakeholder confidence.

I have a proven track record in full project lifecycle management, quality assurance, H&S leadership, contract and cost management, and successful coordination of complex MEP and commissioning activities using tools such as AutoCAD, Procore, BIM 360 and Aconex.
