About
Entering the construction industry at sixteen years of age as a trade apprentice has always remained the platform that has spring boarded my career from site operative to main board director. The ability to communicate at all levels within the industry has undoubtedly been a major factor of my career sucess. This has been as a result of this strong Electrical / Mechanical Engineering background, which has served in the transition from services orientated engineer to heading one of Scotland largest specialist fit-out organisations. This experience has seen my career deliver numerous landmark projects including, Braehead Shopping Centre, Carstairs High Security State Hospital, Stobhill Hospital, Glasgow University Bio-Medical Building along with various schools project in Ayrshire , Strathclyde and Renfrewshire.
